Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the biliary tract: A precursor lesion to cholangiocarcinoma

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2019
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the biliary tract (IPMN-B) is an increasingly recognized pathologic entity characterized by intraluminal papillary masses and increased mucin secretion, resulting in obstruction and dilation of the biliary tree.

Possible additional value of 18FDG-PET in managing pancreas intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms: Preliminary results

open access: yesJournal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, 2008
Although some clinical and radiological features may predict malignancy presence in intraductal papillary mucinous pancreas neoplasms, preoperative diagnosis remains difficult.

An Intraductal Papillary Neoplasm of the Bile Duct at the Duodenal Papilla

open access: yesCase Reports in Oncology, 2014
In recent years, the disease concept of intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct (IPNB) has been attracting attention as a biliary lesion that is morphologically similar to intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN), which is considered to be ...

Mucin-hypersecreting bile duct neoplasm characterized by clinicopathological resemblance to intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) of the pancreas

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2007
Background Although intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) of the pancreas is acceptable as a distinct disease entity, the concept of mucin-secreting biliary tumors has not been fully established.

Functional Advantage of Central Pancreatectomy Over Distal Pancreatectomy for Benign or Low‐Grade Malignant Tumors: A Comparative Analysis Based on 75‐g Oral Glucose Tolerance Test

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Central pancreatectomy (CP) better preserves postoperative pancreatic endocrine function than distal pancreatectomy for benign or low‐grade malignant tumors. The 75‐g oral glucose tolerance test demonstrated that CP maintained insulin secretion and glucose tolerance, highlighting its clinical advantage as a function‐preserving procedure.

Significance of Self‐Expandable Metallic Stent for Postoperative Intra‐Abdominal Infection After Pancreatoduodenectomy in Patients With a Hard Pancreas

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Self‐expandable metal stents (SEMS) are often used for preoperative biliary drainage in pancreatoduodenectomy (PD); however, their impact on postoperative intra‐abdominal infection (POAI) remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical significance of SEMS in relation to POAI.

Metamorphoses in pancreatic cancer precursors: the role of simple mucinous cysts†

open access: yesThe Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Pancreatic cystic lesions present a unique opportunity to identify and potentially prevent pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), one of the deadliest solid tumors. Until now, research has primarily focused on intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) and mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCNs), whose potential for malignant transformation ...

Radiomics advances in the evaluation of pancreatic cystic neoplasms

open access: yesHeliyon
With the development of medical imaging, the detection rate of pancreatic cystic neoplasms (PCNs) has increased greatly. Serous cystic neoplasm, solid pseudopapillary neoplasm, intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm and mucinous cystic neoplasm are the ...

High Burden of Pancreatic Surgery for Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasia With Low‐Grade Dysplasia and Benign Cysts: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesUnited European Gastroenterology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms with low‐grade dysplasia (IPMNs w/LGD) and benign cysts, including serous cystadenomas (SCAs), are common pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) that are better managed conservatively. The burden of patients who undergo surgical resection for these cysts is unknown.
