Multicentric Italian survey on daily practice for autoimmune pancreatitis: Clinical data, diagnosis, treatment, and evolution toward pancreatic insufficiency

Abstract: Background Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is a rare, and relatively new, form of chronic pancreatitis. The management of AIP can vary considerably among different centres in daily clinical practice. Objectives The aim of this study is to present a picture of epidemiological, clinical characteristics, outcomes, and the real-life practice in terms of management in several academic and non-academic centres in … Show more

“…Obtaining adequate samples to meet the histologic ICDC criteria represents a real challenge for the endoscopist as these criteria are mainly based on findings described on surgical specimens that cannot be easily obtained in even a high-quality biopsy sample. Therefore, in light of the outstanding histological performance of the newer generation FNB needles, our results should push the pathologists to reconsider the histologic diagnostic criteria for AIP in order to define more feasible criteria based on FNB samples 29 .…”
