Choledochal cyst (CC) is a cystic disease predominantly involving the extrahepatic biliary tree. Biliary atresia (BA), another disorder of the extrahepatic biliary tree, is sometimes considered to be in the same spectrum as pediatric CC. Recently, the absence and/or the structural abnormality of the primary cilia in the intrahepatic cholangiocytes have been implicated in the pathogenesis of BA. We aimed to evaluate the expression of primary ciliary proteins in the intrahepatic cholangiocytes in cases of pediatric CC and compare it with normal control and BA. We performed immunohistochemistry for primary ciliary proteins (acetylated-α-tubulin and double-cortin domain containing 2) on the liver biopsies of control liver (n=5), pediatric CC (n=13), and BA (n=14). We also compared the expression with various clinical, biochemical, histopathologic (portal fibroinflammation and ductal plate malformation), and immunohistochemical (proliferative index) data. There was significant loss of primary cilia from the intrahepatic cholangiocytes in cases of CC and BA as compared with the normal control by both immunostains (CC: P=0.003 and 0.001, respectively; BA: P=0.001 and 0.001, respectively). There was no significant difference between the CC and BA in terms of ciliary protein loss. The loss of the ciliary proteins occurred irrespective of the proliferative (MIB-1 labeling) index, portal fibroinflammation, or ductal plate malformation. The loss of cilia did not correlate with the clinical follow-up in cases of pediatric CC. The loss of primary cilia from the intrahepatic cholangiocytes may be crucial in the etiopathogenesis of pediatric CC.
