Objective: Ampullary neoplastic lesions can be resected by endoscopic papillectomy (EP) or transduodenal surgical ampullectomy (TSA) while pancreaticoduodenectomy is reserved for more advanced lesions. We present the largest retrospective comparative study analysing EP and TSA.

Design: Of all patients in the database, lesions with prior interventions, benign histology advanced malignancy (T2 and more), patients with hereditary syndromes and those undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy were excluded.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigated outcomes of lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) placement in patients with surgically altered anatomy (SAA), which is not well-documented in existing literature, involving 270 patients across 25 tertiary care centers up to November 2023.
  • - Technical success of the procedures was very high at 98%, with clinical success at 97%, although there was a notable adverse event rate of 12%, with various degrees of severity recorded.
  • - The results suggest that while LAMS placement in SAA is effective, due to the risk of complications, these procedures should only be performed by experienced endoscopists in specialized centers.
