New Endoscopic Strategy for Ampullary Tumor and Superficial Nonampullary Duodenal Epithelial Tumor Extending Into Papillary Area

open access: yesJournal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Study Aim Endoscopic papillectomy (EP) is widely performed for avoiding high‐risk surgeries. However, recurrence rates are high, and lateral extension is a risk for recurrence. With endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), even lesions with lateral extensions are able to be en bloc resected, and may reduce that risk.

Prevalence of Pancreaticobiliary Maljunction and High Confluence of the Pancreaticobiliary Ducts: True Incidence of Gallbladder Cancer

open access: yesJournal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Although pancreaticobiliary maljunction (PBM) is associated with a high incidence of biliary cancer, it often goes undiagnosed. This means that the true prevalence of PBM and the incidence of biliary cancer are unknown. High confluence of the pancreaticobiliary ducts (HCPBD) may be an intermediate PBM variant, though reports are ...
