Simultaneous Extensive Intraductal Papillary Neoplasm of the Bile Duct and Pancreas: A Very Rare Entity

Abstract: Intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct (IPNB) is a specific type of bile duct tumor. It has been proposed that it could be the biliary counterpart of the intraductal papillary neoplasm of the pancreas (IPMN-P). This hypothesis is supported by the presence of simultaneous intraductal tumors of both the bile duct and pancreas. There have been five reports of patients with simultaneous IPNB and IPMN-P. In all of these cases, biliary involvement was limited to the intrahepatic and perihilar bile duct, whi… Show more

“…Most of the non‐malignant IPNBs (91.6%) we observed were intrahepatic, supporting the observation that IPNB of the proximal bile duct (i.e., intrahepatic and perihilar) progresses slowly compared with IPNBs located more distally . There was difficulty comparing tumors by location.…”

“…NLR and PLR are inflammatory markers known to be associated with invasive cancer in many tumors, especially IPMN [8, 9], which is considered the pancreatic counterpart of IPNB [10, 11] and both develop from the endoderm foregut almost at the same time. Interestingly, the lining epithelia of the bile duct and main pancreatic duct show similar morphologies and phenotypes, and both are accompanied by periductal glands.…”

“…When intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile duct tumors invaded to the hilar region often indicated an enhancement of tumor infiltration. Although the progress of bile duct and pancreatic papillary adenomas is relatively slow, the prognosis is often poor when multiple infiltrates appear (Luvira et al, 2016).…”
