Risk factors for bile duct cancer include chronic inflammation of the bile ducts, primary sclerosing cholangitis, bile duct stones, and liver fluke infections. Certain congenital biliary abnormalities may also increase the risk. Chronic irritation of the bile duct lining can lead to malignant transformation.
