PSC is a rare immune-mediated liver disease, and most people who have PSC also have inflammatory bowel disease (known as IBD or colitis or Crohn’s disease). Although PSC research is thriving, we do not yet have a cure for PSC, and some people go on to need a liver transplant. The PSC Support app helps people live better with PSC and manage their care.
