Overview
Laboratory Findings
- Elevated liver enzymes (AST/ALT) [1]
- Leukocytosis [2]
- Elevated bilirubin and alkaline phosphatase may or may not be present.
- High levels of CA 19-9 may be present. Hence, it is important to rule out Mirizzi’s syndrome before labeling and incorrectly diagnosing the patient for having a biliary malignancy. [2]
