  ABSTRACT: Psoriasis is a common inflammatory skin disease with many comorbid conditions. We present a 37-year-old male patient with a history of plaque psoriasis, status febrilis, violent umbilical pain, elevated inflammatory markers and liver parameters. Blood cultures were tested positive for E. coli. Diagnostic findings indicated that mechanical icterus and cholangiosepsis in the context of neutrophilic cholangitis were caused by inflammatory stenosis. Neutrophilic cholangitis is often found in combination with skin diseases with intense cutaneous infiltration with polymorphonuclear leucocytes and peripherial blood neutrophilia. Interleukin-8 may play a role in the pathogenesis of neutrophilic cholangitis occurring in patients with psoriasis [1]. We showed that complications of psoriasis can also occur at unusual locations. To date no case of neutrophilic cholangitis as an elicitor of cholangiosepsis has been reported.
