Background/objectivesResections for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) have increased last decades. Overall survival (OS) for conventional pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is well known but OS for invasive IPMN (inv-IPMN) is not as conclusive. This study aims to elucidate potential differences in clinicopathology and OS between these tumor types and to investigate if the raised number of resections have affected outcome.MethodsConsecutive patients ≥18 years of age resected for inv-IPMN and PDAC at Karolinska University Hospital between 2009 and 2018 were included. Clinicopathological variables were analyzed in multivariable regression models. Outcome was assessed calculating two-year OS, estimating OS using the Kaplan-Meier model and comparing survival functions with log-rank test.Results513 patients were included, 122 with inv-IPMN and 391 with PDAC. During the study period both the proportion resected inv-IPMN and two-year OS, irrespective of tumor type, increased (2.5%–45%; p < 0.001 and 44%–57%; p = 0.005 respectively). In Kaplan-Meier survival analysis inv-IPMN had more favorable median OS (mOS) compared to PDAC (33.6 months vs 19.3 months, p = 0.001). However, in multivariable Cox Regression analysis, tumor type was not a predictor for death, but so were resection period, tumor subtype and N-stage (all p < 0.001).ConclusionIn this large single center observational cohort study, inv-IPMN seemed to have favorable survival outcome compared to PDAC, but after adjusting for predictors for death this benefit vanished. The combination of a pronounced increase in resected inv-IPMN and a concurrent hazard abatement for death within 2 years during the study period proved to be a principal factor. 相似文献
Abstract: The distinction between hepatobiliary cystadenoma or cystadenocarcinoma and simple hepatic cyst complicated by intracystic hemorrhage may prove difficult to determine on the sole basis of clinical and radiological features because of the presence of intracystic structures and septations well-demonstrated by ultrasound examination in both situations. We investigated four patients with various types of hepatic cysts, in whom diagnostic difficulties led to further investigations. In this small group, CA 19–9 serum levels were abnormal only in the two patients with cystadenoma or cystadenocarcinoma. Cystic fluid CA 19–9 values were also five times higher in cystadenoma and cystadenocarcinoma than in other benign lesions. Our data thus suggest that the determination of serum and cyst fluid CA 19–9 may be of help in distinguishing between hemorrhagic simple cyst and cystadenoma or cystadenocarcinoma. 相似文献
Objectives: The clinical impact of endoscopic ultrasonography-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) in managing pancreatic cystic neoplasms (PCNs) remains controversial. The aim of this study was to identify which patients with PCNs would benefit from EUS-FNA.
Methods: A retrospective study was performed on patients with PCNs who underwent EUS-FNA between January 2009 and June 2018. A discordant or a consistent diagnosis after EUS-FNA was analyzed and was correlated with the clinical demographic data and cystic features. Predictors of the change in the diagnosis after EUS-FNA were analyzed.
Results: One hundred eighty-eight cases of PCNs were analyzed. EUS-FNA changed the diagnosis in 45.7% of all patients with PCNs and 54.5% patients with presumed branch ductal type intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (BD-IPMN) and impacted the recommendation in 35.6% of patients with PCNs and 50.5% patients with BD-IPMN. Patients with a discordant diagnosis after EUS-FNA were younger in age (54.8?±?12.6 vs. 61.2?±?14.2; p=.037) and had a cyst size larger than 3?cm than patients with a consistent diagnosis after EUS-FNA. The only worrisome feature (WF) that differed between patients with a discordant and a consistent diagnosis after EUS-FNA was the main pancreatic duct (MPD) between 5 and 9?mm (p=.013). In multivariate analysis, a cyst size >3?cm and age were independent predictors of diagnostic changes after EUS-FNA (OR: 5.33, 95% CI: 1.79–15.88, p?=?.003; OR: 0.96, 95% CI: 0.93–0.99, p = .031).
Conclusions: EUS-FNA made a significant change in the management of nearly half of the patients with PCNs, especially in younger patients and in patients with a cyst size larger than 3?cm. 相似文献
This study was designed to establish institutional indications for pancreatic islet transplantation by examining patients with total pancreatectomy as candidates for islet allotransplantation.
Methods
In 12 patients who underwent total pancreatectomy, we compared pre-and postoperative plasma glucose level, body mass index, HbA1c, and daily insulin use; we examined candidacy for islet allotransplantation based on the guidelines of Japan’s islet transplantation registry.
Results
Eight of the 12 patients with total pancreatectomy were operated for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm. At our institution, the 5-year survival of patients with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm was far better (76.3%) than that of patients with pancreatic cancer. Postoperatively, plasma glucose level, HbA1c, and daily insulin use were increased in all patients with total pancreatectomy. Of the 12 patients treated with total pancreatectomy, 4 (intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm, n = 2; islet cell tumor, n = 1; and acute pancreatitis due to arteriovenous malformation, n = 1) showed deteriorated diabetic control and therefore were considered to be candidates for islet allotransplantation according to the guidelines.
Conclusions
Islet allotransplantation could be indicated for patients with favorable postoperative survival who have had a total pancreatectomy for either benign or neoplastic disease. 相似文献
Central papillary cystadenocarcinoma of the jaw is an extremely rare tumor with only three previously reported cases in the English literature. This tumor is a histologically low-grade cancer, affecting more commonly in the mandible than in the maxilla.
PRESENTATION OF CASE
A 65-year-old woman presented with a two months history of a rapidly growing, painless mass of the right ascending ramus of the mandible. The pathologic report from incisional biopsy was a papillary cystic tumor with a differential diagnosis of cystadenoma versus cystadenocarcinoma. Segmental mandibulectomy, parotidectomy and submandibular gland resection were performed. The final pathology was intraosseous papillary cystadenocarcinoma.
DISCUSSION
Clinical features of central papillary cystadenocarcinoma of the mandible mimic an odontogenic lesion and metastatic bone disease, careful review of radiograph and pathology should be done. Surgical excision with wide margins is the appropriate treatment. Postoperative radiation therapy should be considered in histologically aggressive or high-stage tumor.
CONCLUSION
This is the fourth case of central papillary cystadenocarcinoma of the mandible in the English literature. Although it is usually a low-grade cancer, en bloc resection with adjuvant postoperative radiotherapy in a high-stage disease, and long-term follow-up allow the patient to have a favorable prognosis. 相似文献
Cholangiocarcinoma is a malignant neoplasm originating from the biliary epithelium. Its incidence is highest in Southeast Asia, especially in Thailand. Mucinous intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (mucinous iCCA), characterized by an abundant extracellular mucin pool accounting for at least 50% of total tumor volume, is an extremely rare variant of such malignancy and is notorious for rapid progression and dismal prognosis. We conducted an 11‐year retrospective analysis of resected mucinous iCCAs from our institution with a systematic review on mucinous iCCAs and combined hepatocellular‐mucinous cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC‐mCCA). There were four resected mucinous iCCA specimens at our institution (prevalence = 0.5%). Most of the patients were male. The clinicopathological characteristics were variable. The diagnosis of mucinous iCCAs could not be rendered without pathological evaluation. Either intraductal papillary neoplasm or biliary intraepithelial neoplasia was present in three out of four cases. One patient passed away at 11 months following liver resection. A total of 19 mucinous iCCAs and four cHCC‐mCCAs from previously published literature were analyzed. The 1‐year mortality rate of mucinous iCCAs from our series and published literature is 35%. The present study confirmed that mucinous iCCA is an exceedingly uncommon variant of iCCA. The differential diagnoses include metastatic carcinoma with mucinous component and cHCC‐mCCA. 相似文献
We report a case of a 44-year-old woman with bilateral ovarian carcinoma that had metastasized from the colon and mimicked primary mucinous cystadenocarcinoma. Macroscopically, both ovarian tumors were large, multiloculated cystic masses with abundant mucinous content. Histologically, they were lined with mucinous epithelium with mild to moderate nuclear atypia and showed stromal invasion and surface involvement. At first, the tumors were diagnosed as bilateral primary ovarian mucinous cystadenocarcinomas. However, three months after surgery, a large villous tumor was discovered in the ascending colon by colonoscopic examination and was surgically resected. Histologically, the colonic tumor was a villous adenomatous tumor with invasive components of mucinous adenocarcinoma composed of well-differentiated adenocarcinoma and exhibited abundant extracellular mucin production. As a villous adenomatous component was present in the mucosal area, the colonic tumor was considered a primary tumor. Therefore, the original diagnosis of bilateral ovarian tumors was revised for consistent with metastasis from the colon carcinoma, in line with the findings of immunohistochemistry and loss of heterozygosity analysis. This case highlights the importance of considering the possibility of metastatic tumors from the gastrointestinal tract in the diagnosis of mucinous ovarian tumors. 相似文献
