An elevated CA 19-9 is associated with invasive cancer and worse survival in IPMN

BackgroundCurrent guidelines for IPMN include an elevated serum carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19-9 among the worrisome features. However, the correlation of CA 19-9 with histological malignant features and survival is unclear. Serum CEA is also currently used for preoperative management of IPMN, although its measurement is not evidence-based. Accordingly, we aimed to assess the role of these tumor markers as predictors of malignancy in IPMN.MethodsIPMN resected between 1998 and 2018 at Massachusetts General Hospital were analyzed. Clinical, pathological and survival data were collected and compared to preoperative levels of CA 19-9 and CEA. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and Cox regression analyses were performed considering cut-offs of 37 U/ml (CA 19-9) and 5 μg/l (CEA).ResultsAnalysis of 594 patients showed that preoperative CA 19-9 levels > 37 U/ml (n = 128) were associated with an increased likelihood of invasive carcinoma when compared to normal levels (45.3% vs. 18.0%, P < 0.001), while there was no difference with respect to high-grade dysplasia (32.9% vs 31.9%, P = 0.88). The proportion of concurrent pancreatic cancer was higher in patients with CA 19-9 > 37 U/ml (17.2% vs 4.9%, P < 0.001). An elevated CA 19-9 was also associated with worse overall and disease-free survival (HR = 1.943, P = 0.007 and HR = 2.484, P < 0.001 respectively). CEA levels did not correlate with malignancy.ConclusionIn patients with IPMN, serum CA19-9 > 37 U/ml is associated with invasive IPMN and concurrent pancreatic cancer as well as worse survival, but not with high-grade dysplasia. Serum CEA appears to have minimal utility in the management of these patients.     

Laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy after endovascular repair for abdominal aortic aneurysm

INTRODUCTIONMost gastroenterological surgeries, even pancreatic surgery, can now be performed laparoscopically. However, the management of concomitant abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and intra-abdominal malignancy is controversial. The performance of endovascular repair (EVAR) for AAA has been increasing; however, there is no report of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy after EVAR.PRESENTATION OF CASEA pancreatic tumor was detected during follow-up after EVAR for AAA. The enlarging tumor was diagnosed as an intraductal papillary mucinous tumor with a nodule. Laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy was safely performed. After laparoscopic dissection around the pancreas head, an additional incision was made in the upper abdomen, and pancreatic reconstruction was performed through the incision. In spite of grade B pancreatic fistulae, the patient recovered with medical therapy. The pathological diagnosis was intraductal papillary mucinous adenoma with small foci of carcinoma in situ. The patient has been well with neither recurrence of the tumor nor any cardiovascular events for 18 months.DISCUSSIONThe management of concomitant malignancy and AAA is challenging, especially in patients with a pancreatic tumor. The reasons for the rarity of treatment include prognosis, anatomical vicinity, and postoperative complications. EVAR reduces retroperitoneal adhesions. A laparoscopic approach provides a small operative field and decreases mutual interference with AAA. Moreover, reconstruction is performed through an upper abdominal incision apart from the AAA. Hand-sewing provides more reliable stability of the anastomosis.CONCLUSIONThe increasing frequency of performance of EVAR for AAA and subsequent computed tomography may help to detect malignancy. Laparoscopic surgery appears to be a valid approach to malignancy after EVAR.     

组织病理学分型在胰腺导管内乳头状黏液性肿瘤中的临床意义

胰腺导管内乳头状黏液性肿瘤(IPMN)是一类少见的胰腺囊性肿瘤,以胰腺导管上皮细胞乳头状异常增生合并大量黏液产生为特点。IPMN根据累及胰管不同,可以分为主胰管型、分支胰管型及混合型,病理学上表现为腺瘤至浸润癌多种类型。根据细胞形态及表达黏蛋白不同,可以分为胃型、肠型、胰胆管型及嗜酸细胞型。笔者结合既往文献及团队实践经验,分析组织病理学分型在胰腺IPMN中的临床意义,旨在提高外科医师对胰腺IPMN不同组织病理学类型的认识。     

Outcome after resection for invasive intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasia is similar to conventional pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

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.
