Radiological evidence of focal pancreatic parenchymal atrophy (FPPA) may presage early ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) development. We aimed to clarify the incidence FPPA and clinicopathological features PDAC with before diagnosis. Data on endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsies surgical samples from 170 patients cancer histologically diagnosed between 2014 2019 were extracted pathology database Komagome Hospital Juntendo University hospital retrospectively evaluated together 51...
Abstract Background/purpose Although pancreatic cancer produces upstream obstructive pancreatitis, acute pancreatitis is a less common manifestation of cancer. This study aimed to clarify the subgroup patients who present with an episode (Group I) in comparison matched group without II) and another III). Methods was retrospective comparative 18 Group I, 300 II 141 III. Results The mean age I 63.7 years male female ration 1:0.3. Serum CA 19–9 levels were elevated 80 %. main duct incompletely...
Background/Aims: Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is frequently associated with diabetes mellitus (DM).This study evaluated the effect of steroid therapy on course DM in AIP.Methods: Glucose tolerance was examined 69 patients AIP.DM onset classified as either a simultaneous AIP or an exacerbation pre-existing DM.Based changes HbA1c levels and insulin dose, responses to steroids were improved, no change, worsened.Results: Thirty (46%) diagnosed having (simultaneous onset, n=17; pre-existing,...
Epidermoid cyst in an intrapancreatic accessory spleen (ECIPAS) is a rare, pancreatic cystic lesion covered with epithelioid cells and surrounded by splenic tissue.[1] Most cases of ECIPAS are diagnosed postoperatively based on pathological findings.[2] There few reports contrast-enhanced EUS (CE-EUS) or EUS-FNA. We present herein case CE-EUS A 28-year-old, female patient was admitted cysts. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed 17-mm, multilocular 7-mm, unilocular the tail. The...
IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a potentially multiorgan disorder. In this study, clinical and serological features from 132 IgG4-RD patients were compared about organ correlations. Underlying pathologies comprised autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) in 85 cases, sclerosing cholangitis (IgG4-SC) 12, sialadenitis (IgG4-SIA) 56, dacryoadenitis (IgG4-DAC) 38, lymphadenopathy (IgG4-LYM) 20, retroperitoneal fibrosis (IgG4-RF) 19, kidney (IgG4-KD) 6, pseudotumor (IgG4-PT) 3. Sixty-five (49%) had...
Few studies have differentiated immunoglobulin G (IgG) 4-related sclerosing cholangitis (IgG4-SC) from hilar cholangiocarcinoma (CC). Thus, we sought to investigate useful features for differentiating IgG4-SC CC.We retrospectively compared clinical, serological, imaging, and histological of six patients with 42 CC.In CC, obstructive jaundice was more frequent (p<0.01), serum total bilirubin levels were significantly higher (p<0.05), CA19-9 duke pancreatic monoclonal antigen type 2 frequently...
An aberrant right posterior sectoral hepatic duct (PHD) draining into extrahepatic bile duct, gallbladder or cystic directly is a common and critical anomaly during cholecystectomy. This study aimed to investigate the frequency of PHD describe why critical.In 753 consecutive patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) using our standardized procedure over 9 years, we reinvestigated whether an was present preoperative images. A joining through cranial side hilar plate defined as...
Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is used to observe the stricture of main pancreatic duct (MPD) and in diagnosing cancer (PC). We investigate findings on EUS by referring histopathological resected specimens.Six patients with carcinoma situ (CIS) 30 invasive 20 mm or less were included. The preoperative classified as follows. A1: Simple type-no around stricture; A2: Hypoecho type-localized hypoechoic area without demarcation A3: Tumor type-tumor B: Dilation type-the dilation a downstream C:...
Objective To clarify the allergic manifestations in patients with autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP). Methods We assessed 67 AIP patients, before they received steroid therapy, for a past history of disease, peripheral eosinophil count (n=62) and serum IgE level (n=53). Allergen-specific antibody serologic assays were performed 15 patients. Results A positive and/or presence active disease found 24 (36%), including acute rhinitis eight bronchial asthma. Peripheral eosinophilia elevation detected...
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is sometimes associated with autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP). Infiltration of immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-positive plasma cells detected in the colonic mucosa AIP or UC patients. This study aimed to clarify relation between and IgG4.Associations were reviewed 85 IgG4 immunostaining was performed on biopsy specimens from 14 32 patients.UC confirmed two cases (type 1 AIP, n=1; suspected type 2 n=1). Abundant infiltration IgG4-positive case without colitis. 10 (IgG4-present,...
