In benign or low-grade malignant pancreatic tumors, complete removal of the lesion is sufficient for a cure, and thus minimal resection techniques with preservation of the pancreatic functional reserve have advantages over more extended pancreatic resections. However, a high incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula in such procedures has been reported. Moreover, branch-type intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms of the pancreas tend to locate in the head of the pancreas, and show less malignant potential. We describe an endoscopic naso-pancreatic stent-guided single-branch resection of the pancreas for branch-type multiple intraductal papillary mucinous adenomas, along with a gastric wall-covering method for the prevention of pancreatic leakage.

To survey and characterize intraductal polypoid neoplasms in the intrahepatic large bile ducts of small duct-type intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (small duct-iCCA), a total of 121 cases of small duct-iCCA presenting mass-forming growth were surveyed for intraductal polypoid neoplasms that were compared with mass-forming tumors in individual cases and with intraductal papillary neoplasm of bile duct (IPNB) (20 cases). Polypoid neoplasms were found in intrahepatic bile ducts in 8 (6.6%) of 121 cases of small duct-iCCA.

An asymptomatic 79-year old woman presented with a 40 mm pancreatic cystic lesion, located in the pancreatic body-tail and consistent with branch-duct intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (BD-IPMN) without "high risk stigmata". During a 4-year follow-up period, imaging showed no mural nodules or main pancreatic duct dilation, and serum CEA and CA19.9 were within normal range.

Background: The authors assessed the feasibility, acceptability, and impact on cancer worry of a cancer screening program using multicancer early detection (MCED) tests and whole-body magnetic resonance imaging (WBM) in individuals at high cancer risk because of family history or germline variants in cancer-susceptibility genes.
Methods: This prospective trial enrolled participants aged 50 years and older who had a significant family history of cancer or a cancer-susceptibility gene variant. Participants underwent noncontrast WBM and MCED testing.
