Ohtsuka T, Fernandez-Del Castillo C, Furukawa T, Hijioka S, Jang JY, Lennon AM, Miyasaka Y, Ohno E, Salvia R, Wolfgang CL, Wood LD. International evidence-based Kyoto guidelines for the management of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the pancreas. Pancreatology 2024; 24:255-270. [PMID: 38182527 DOI: 10.1016/j.pan.2023.12.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2023] [Revised: 11/14/2023] [Accepted: 12/22/2023] [Indexed: 01/07/2024]
Abstract
This study group aimed to revise the 2017 international consensus guidelines for the management of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) of the pancreas, and mainly focused on five topics; the revision of high-risk stigmata (HRS) and worrisome features (WF), surveillance of non-resected IPMN, surveillance after resection of IPMN, revision of pathological aspects, and investigation of molecular markers in cyst fluid. A new development from the prior guidelines is that systematic reviews were performed for each one of these topics, and published separately to provide evidence-based recommendations. One of the highlights of these new "evidence-based guidelines" is to propose a new management algorithm, and one major revision is to include into the assessment of HRS and WF the imaging findings from endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and the results of cytological analysis from EUS-guided fine needle aspiration technique, when this is performed. Another key element of the current guidelines is to clarify whether lifetime surveillance for small IPMNs is required, and recommends two options, "stop surveillance" or "continue surveillance for possible development of concomitant pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma", for small unchanged BD-IPMN after 5 years surveillance. Several other points are also discussed, including identifying high-risk features for recurrence in patients who underwent resection of non-invasive IPMN with negative surgical margin, summaries of the recent observations in the pathology of IPMN. In addition, the emerging role of cyst fluid markers that can aid in distinguishing IPMN from other pancreatic cysts and identify those IPMNs that harbor high-grade dysplasia or invasive carcinoma is discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) are a cystic precursor to pancreatic cancer. IPMNs deemed clinically to be at high-risk for malignant progression are frequently treated with surgical resection, and pathological examination of the pancreatectomy specimen is a key component of the clinical care of IPMN patients. METHODS Systematic literature reviews were conducted around eight topics of clinical relevance in the examination of pathological specimens in patients undergoing resection of IPMN. RESULTS This review provides updated perspectives on morphological subtyping of IPMNs, classification of intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasms, nomenclature for high-grade dysplasia, assessment of T stage, distinction of carcinoma associated or concomitant with IPMN, role of molecular assessment of IPMN tissue, role of intraoperative assessment by frozen section, and preoperative evaluation of cyst fluid cytology. CONCLUSIONS This analysis provides the foundation for data-driven approaches to several challenging issues in the pathology of IPMNs.

Intraoperative pancreatoscopy can improve the detection of skip lesions during surgery for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasia: A pilot study. Pancreatology 2023; 23:704-711. [PMID: 37336668 DOI: 10.1016/j.pan.2023.06.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2022] [Revised: 05/09/2023] [Accepted: 06/06/2023] [Indexed: 06/21/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Intraoperative pancreatoscopy is a promising procedure that might guide surgical resection for suspected main duct (MD) and mixed type (MT) intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs). The aim of the present study was to assess the diagnostic yield and clinical impact of intraoperative pancreatoscopy in patients operated on for MD and MT-IPMNs. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study. Patients undergoing surgery for suspected MD or MT-IPMN underwent intraoperative pancreatoscopy and frozen section analysis. In all patients who required extended resection due to pancreatoscopic findings, we compared the final histology with the results of the intraoperative frozen section analysis. RESULTS In total, 46 patients, 48% females, mean age (range) 67 years (45-82 years) underwent intraoperative pancreatoscopy. No mortality or procedure related complications were observed. Pancreatoscopy changed the operative course in 30 patients (65%), leading to extended resections in 20 patients (43%) and to parenchyma sparing procedures in 10 patients (22%). Analyzing the group of patients who underwent extended resections, 7 (35%) displayed lesions that needed further surgical treatment (six high grade dysplasia and one with G1 pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor) and among those 7, just 1 (14%) would have been detected exclusively with histological frozen section analysis of the transection margin. The combination of both pancreatoscopy and frozen section analysis lead to 86% sensitivity and 92% specificity for the detection of pathological tissue in the remnant pancreas. CONCLUSION Intraoperative pancreatoscopy is a safe and feasible procedure and might allow the detection of skip lesions during surgery for suspect MD-involving IPMNs.

Invasive and Noninvasive Progression After Resection of Noninvasive Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasms. Ann Surg 2022; 276:370-377.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To define frequencies, pattern of progression (invasive vs noninvasive), and risk factors of progression of resected noninvasive intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs). BACKGROUND There is a risk of progression in the remnant pancreas after resection of IPMNs. METHODS Four hundred forty-nine consecutive patients with resected IPMNs from 1995 to 2018 were included to the study. Patients with invasive carcinoma or with follow-up <6 months were excluded. Noninvasive progression was defined as a new IPMN, increased main pancreatic duct size, and increased size of an existing lesion (5 mm compared with preoperative imaging). Invasive progression was defined as development of invasive cancer in the remnant pancreas or metastatic disease. RESULTS With a median follow-up of 48.9 months, progression was identified in 124 patients (27.6%); 108(24.1%) with noninvasive and 16(3.6%) with invasive progression. Median progression follow-up was longer for invasive progression (85.4 vs 55.9 months; P = 0.001). Five-and 10-year estimates for a cumulative incidence of invasive progression were 6.4% and 12.9% versus 26.9% and 41.5% for noninvasive progression. After risk adjustment, multifocality (HR 4.53, 95% CI 1.34-15.26; P = 0.02) and high-grade dysplasia (HGD) in the original resection (HR 3.60, 95% CI 1.13-11.48; P = 0.03) were associated with invasive progression. CONCLUSIONS Progression to invasive carcinoma can occur years after the surgical resection of a noninvasive IPMN. HGD in the original resection is a risk factor for invasive progression but some cases of low-grade dysplasia also progressed to cancer. Patients with high-risk features such as HGD and multifocal cysts should be considered for more intensive surveillance and represent an important cohort for future trials such as anti-inflammatory or prophylactic immunotherapy.

Abstract
BackgroundIntraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) and mucinous cystic neoplasm (MCN) are two main histological subtypes of pancreatic cystic neoplasms with rapidly increasing incidence recently. The natural histories, treatment patterns, and survival outcomes of invasive IPMN and invasive MCN have not been well explored.MethodsPatients with a diagnosis of invasive IPMN and invasive MCN in the SEER database from 2000 through 2018 were retrospectively identified. Multivariable Cox regression analysis was conducted to determine the independent risk factors associated with overall survival (OS). Subgroup analyses of survival outcomes for invasive IPMN and invasive MCN were conducted. The OS for invasive IPMN was compared between patients who underwent surgery alone and those who received surgery plus chemotherapy by propensity score matching (PSM).ResultsA total of 2,505 patients were included, of whom 2,300 were diagnosed with invasive IPMN and 205 were diagnosed with invasive MCN. Half of the invasive IPMN (48.4%) and three-quarters of the invasive MCN (76.1%) patients were female. Of all patients, both the OS and cancer-specific survival were significantly better in the invasive MCN cohort compared to the invasive IPMN cohort. In subgroup analyses, while invasive MCN experienced better OS compared to invasive IPMN in the subgroups of patients with local–regional disease, the survival advantages disappeared in patients at a distant stage. In addition, surgery plus chemotherapy in invasive IPMN patients was associated with significantly better survival compared to surgery alone after PSM.ConclusionWe examined the demographic and clinical characteristics between invasive IPMN and invasive MCN patients using a large-population-based analysis. Although the OS is significantly better for invasive MCN versus invasive IPMN, the difference disappeared in patients with distant disease. A combination of surgery and chemotherapy in selected invasive IPMN patients could confer survival benefits compared to surgery alone.

Abstract
The extension of a partial pancreatectomy up to total pancreatectomy because of positive neck margin examined at intraoperative frozen section (IFS) analysis is an accepted procedure in modern pancreatic surgery with good accuracy. The goal of this practice is to improve the rate of radical (R0) resection in malignant tumors, mainly pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), and to completely resect pre-invasive neoplasms such as intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs). In the setting of IPMNs there is a consensus for pancreatic re-resection when high-grade dysplasia and invasive cancer are present at the neck margin. The presence of denudation is another indication for further resection in IPMNs. The role of IFS analysis in the management of pancreatic cancer is more debated. The presence of a positive intraoperative transection margin can be considered the surrogate of a biologically aggressive disease associated with a poorer prognosis. There are conflicting data regarding possible advantages of pancreatic re-resection up to total pancreatectomy, and the lack of randomized trials comparing different strategies does not offer a definitive answer. The goal of this review is to provide an up-to-date overview of the role IFS analysis of pancreatic margin and of pancreatic re-resection up to total pancreatectomy considering different pancreatic tumors.

Abstract
Intraoperative frozen sections can significantly improve the results of numerous visceral surgical operations. For this a close cooperation between surgery and pathology is a basic prerequisite. The main indications are the diagnostics of unclear intraoperative findings and the assessment of resection margins. Just as in any other procedure, there are also limiting factors to be considered in frozen section examinations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The relevance of margin positivity on recurrence after resection of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) is poorly defined and represents one reason controversy remains regarding optimal surveillance recommendations. METHODS Patients undergoing surgery for noninvasive IPMN at 8 academic medical centers from the Central Pancreas Consortium were analyzed. A positive margin was defined as presence of IPMN or pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia. RESULTS Five hundred two patients underwent surgery for IPMN; 330 (66%) did not have invasive cancer on final pathology and form the study cohort. Of these, 20% harbored high grade dysplasia. A positive margin was found in 20% of cases and was associated with multifocal disease (P = 0.02). The majority of positive margins were associated with low grade dysplasia. At a median follow-up of 36 months, 34 (10.3%) patients recurred, with 6.7% developing recurrent cystic disease and 3.6% developing invasive cancer. On multivariate analysis, margin positivity was not associated with recurrence of either IPMN or invasive cancer (P > 0.05). No association between margin status and development of recurrence at the margin was found. Only 6% of recurrences developed at the resection margin and median time to recurrence was 22 months. Of note, 18% of recurrences occurred > 5 years following surgery. CONCLUSION Margin positivity after resection for noninvasive IPMNs is primarily due to low grade dysplasia and is not associated with developing recurrence in the remnant pancreas or at the resection margin. Long-term surveillance is required for all patients, as a significant number of recurrences developed over 5 years after the index operation.

Abstract
Evidence-based guidelines on the management of pancreatic cystic neoplasms (PCN) are lacking. This guideline is a joint initiative of the European Study Group on Cystic Tumours of the Pancreas, United European Gastroenterology, European Pancreatic Club, European-African Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association, European Digestive Surgery, and the European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy. It replaces the 2013 European consensus statement guidelines on PCN. European and non-European experts performed systematic reviews and used GRADE methodology to answer relevant clinical questions on nine topics (biomarkers, radiology, endoscopy, intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN), mucinous cystic neoplasm (MCN), serous cystic neoplasm, rare cysts, (neo)adjuvant treatment, and pathology). Recommendations include conservative management, relative and absolute indications for surgery. A conservative approach is recommended for asymptomatic MCN and IPMN measuring <40 mm without an enhancing nodule. Relative indications for surgery in IPMN include a main pancreatic duct (MPD) diameter between 5 and 9.9 mm or a cyst diameter ≥40 mm. Absolute indications for surgery in IPMN, due to the high-risk of malignant transformation, include jaundice, an enhancing mural nodule >5 mm, and MPD diameter >10 mm. Lifelong follow-up of IPMN is recommended in patients who are fit for surgery. The European evidence-based guidelines on PCN aim to improve the diagnosis and management of PCN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: To investigate the paraclinical and pathological features of surgically resected intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms in Sweden. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A review of prospectively collected data on patients undergoing pancreatic resection for a histopathologically verified intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm between 2010 and 2016 was performed using the Swedish National Registry for Pancreatic and Periampullary Cancer. RESULTS: A total of 3038 pancreatic resections were performed during the study period, of which 251 (8.3%) were due to intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms. The intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm cases comprised 227 noninvasive and 24 invasive lesions. There was an annual increase in the number of resected intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms, from 13 in 2010 to 56 in 2016, and an increase in the proportion of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm to the total number of pancreatic resections (4.7%-11%). Biliary obstruction was the only independent predictor of invasive disease, with odds ratio 3.106 (p = 0.030). There was no difference in survival between low-, intermediate-, and high-grade dysplastic lesions (p = 0.417). However, once invasive, the prognosis was severely impacted (p < 0.001). Three-year survival was 90% for noninvasive intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm and 39% for invasive intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm. Survival was better in lymph node negative invasive intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (p = 0.021), but still dismal compared to noninvasive lesions (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: The number of surgically resected intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms is increasing in Sweden. Biliary obstruction is associated with invasive disease. Low-to-high-grade dysplastic intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm has an excellent prognosis, while invasive intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm has a poor survival rate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although IPMN are thought to represent a whole-gland disease, segmental resection remains the most frequently performed treatment. We sought to determine the rates, patterns, and predictors of IPMN progression in the pancreatic remnant following segmental resection of noninvasive or microinvasive IPMN. METHODS A prospectively maintained database was queried to identify all patients who underwent resection of noninvasive or microinvasive IPMN (≤ 10 mm of invasive component) between 1989 and 2015. Progression (recurrence) was defined as either the development of cancer, a new IPMN cystic lesion > 1 cm or ≥ 50% increase in the diameter of residual IPMN lesions in the remnant. Univariate and multivariate cox regression models were created to determine predictors of progression. RESULTS A total of 319 patients underwent resection for noninvasive and microinvasive IPMN. The median age was 68, 53% had branch-duct (BD) IPMN, and 6% had microinvasive disease. After a median follow-up of 42 months, 71 patients (22%) experienced IPMN progression. Within this group of 71 patients, 11 (16% of recurrence) developed invasive cancer in the pancreatic remnant after a median of 28 months. Twelve patients (17%) experienced progression > 5 years following initial resection. On multivariate analysis, a distal location of the initial lesion was associated with an increased risk of progression (multivariate hazards ratio = 2.43, confidence interval 1.47-4.0, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS In this study, 22% of patients had disease progression following resection of noninvasive or microinvasive IPMN; 16% of these progressions represented invasive disease. These patients represent a high-risk group and should undergo long-term radiographic surveillance.

Abstract
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) is one of the most common cystic neoplasms of the pancreas. It is a heterogeneous disease and can be divided into ductal types and morphological subtypes. The incidence of IPMN is increasing, likely due to the widespread use of cross-sectional imaging and a growing elderly population. IPMN poses an increasing demand on the health care system. Current guidelines provide indications for surgery and recommendations for surveillance, but management of IPMN is still challenging in routine clinical practice. In this article, we review current knowledge about IPMN and provide future directions for improving diagnosis and management.
