Abstract
Introduction The objective of this study was to investigate the diagnostic value of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) for tumours around the duodenal ampullary. Patients and Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on cases diagnosed and treated in our hospital from October 2016 to August 2021 due to the lesions around the duodenal ampulla. All patients received EUS, abdominal enhanced computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging combined with magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRI-MRCP). Pathological diagnosis was used to verify the accuracy of the imaging findings. The detection rates of periampullary tumours by EUS, abdominal enhanced CT and MRI-MRCP were determined and compared. Results A total of 86 patients were included in this study. According to the pathological diagnosis, the detection rate of EUS was 87% (36/41) for periampullary tumour lesions with a tumour diameter <1 cm, which was significantly higher than that of MRI-MRCP (59%, 24/41) (P = 0.003) and CT (44%, 18/41) (P < 0.001). For periampullary tumour lesions with a tumour diameter ≥1 cm, the detection rate of MRI-MRCP was 93% (42/45), which was significantly higher than that of EUS (78%, 35/45) (P = 0.036) and CT (76%, 34/45) (P = 0.02). Conclusions EUS can accurately detect tumour lesions around the ampullary part of the duodenum with minimal gas interference. For periampullary tumour lesions <1 cm, EUS has better diagnostic accuracy than abdominal-enhanced CT and MRI-MRCP. In addition, a biopsy of the lesion can be performed at the same time during the EUS examination. Therefore, EUS has an important clinical significance and value in the diagnosis of duodenal periampullary tumours.

Abstract
Simple Summary This study used multicenter data to compare the oncological safety of transduodenal ampullectomy (TDA) with that of pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy (PPPD) in early ampulla of Vater (AoV) cancer. Data for patients who underwent surgical resection for AoV cancer (pTis–T2 stage) from 2000 to 2019 were collected from 15 institutions. A total of 486 patients were enrolled (PPPD, 418; TDA, 68). The oncologic behavior (tumor size, T stage, differentiation, lymphovascular invasion) in the PPPD group was more aggressive than that in the TDA group at all T stages. The 5-year disease-free survival and overall survival did not differ between the two groups when considering all T stages or only the Tis + T1 group. In T1 patients, PPPD had survival outcomes superior to those in the TDA group. In the TDA group, lymph node dissection did not affect survival. In conclusion, PPPD should be the standard procedure for early AoV cancer. Abstract This study used multicenter data to compare the oncological safety of transduodenal ampullectomy (TDA) with that of pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy (PPPD) in early ampulla of Vater (AoV) cancer. Data for patients who underwent surgical resection for AoV cancer (pTis–T2 stage) from January 2000 to September 2019 were collected from 15 institutions. The clinicopathologic characteristics and survival outcomes were compared between the PPPD and TDA groups. A total of 486 patients were enrolled (PPPD, 418; TDA, 68). The oncologic behavior in the PPPD group was more aggressive than that in the TDA group at all T stages: larger tumor size (p = 0.034), advanced T stage (p < 0.001), aggressive cell differentiation (p < 0.001), and more lymphovascular invasion (p = 0.002). Five-year disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) did not differ between the two groups when considering all T stages or only the Tis+T1 group. Among T1 patients, PPPD produced significantly better DFS (PPPD vs. TDA, 84.8% vs. 66.6%, p = 0.040) and superior OS (PPPD vs. TDA, 89.1% vs. 68.0%, p = 0.056) than TDA. Lymph node dissection (LND) in the TDA group did not affect DFS or OS (TDA + LND vs. TDA-only, DFS, p = 0.784; OS, p = 0.870). In conclusion, PPPD should be the standard procedure for early AoV cancer.

Abstract
Background Unexplained common bile duct (CBD) dilatation may be caused by many etiologies, such as periampullary tumors, a pancreatic neoplasm, choledocholithiasis or an inflammatory stenosis. The aim of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic yield of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) in patients with unexplained CBD dilatation, in combination with tumor markers, liver chemistry, symptoms, surgical history and whether there is dilatation of the pancreatic duct (PD). Methods From January 2016 to July 2017, 115 patients were referred for EUS in our center for CBD dilatation of an unknown etiology. A treatment plan is made based on the EUS result combined with the other clinical information. The final diagnosis is determined by surgical histology or follow-up of at least 3 months. Results The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of EUS for patients with choledocholithiasis were 100.0% (10/10), 100.0% (105/105) and 100.0% (115/115), respectively. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of EUS for patients with periampullary tumor were 86.5% (32/37), 89.7% (70/78) and 88.7% (102/115), respectively. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of EUS for patients with inflammatory stenosis were 88.2% (60/68), 89.4% (42/47) and 88.7% (102/115), respectively. The overall accuracy of EUS for diagnosing an undetermined etiology for CBD dilatation was 88.7% (102/115) and was higher than the accuracy of ultrasound (US) (64.1%), computed tomography (CT) (66.2%), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (67.0%) or PET-CT (66.0%). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and accuracy of EUS combined with tumor markers for patients with malignant dilatation of CBD were 91.9% (34/37), 97.4% (76/78), 94.4% (34/36), 96.2% (76/79) and 95.7% (110/115), respectively. PD dilation (P=0.026) and weight loss (P=0.035) had significant predictive values of malignancy. Conclusions EUS is an effective diagnostic tool for determining the etiology of a CBD dilatation, and offers meaningful information for guiding a treatment plan. EUS used in conjunction with tumor markers has high yield in differentiating benign and malignant CBD dilatation. More attention should be paid to patients with PD dilation or weight loss to prevent misdiagnosis of malignant CBD dilation.

Abstract
Purpose Transduodenal ampullectomy (TDA) has been reported in a limited number of cases and in a small number of case series. The aim of this study was to analyze perioperative and long-term oncological outcomes of patients with ampullary tumors who underwent TDA in a single large-volume center. Methods Through a retrospective review of data from 2004 to 2016, we identified 26 patients who underwent TDA at Asan Medical Center. Results Eleven of 26 patients underwent TDA for T1 and carcinoma in situ (high-grade dysplasia) cancer; these patients are still alive without recurrence. A major in-hospital complication (3.8%) occurred in 1 case, but there was no case of 90-day mortality. In addition, none of the patients was diagnosed as having newly developed diabetes mellitus after TDA. No significant differences were found between open and laparoscopic-TDA in terms of operation time, painkiller use, and hospital stay. Conclusion TDA is a feasible and effective surgical procedure for the treatment of selected patients with ampullary tumors. It is an alternative treatment option in cases of ampullary tumors not amenable to endoscopic papillectomy or pancreaticoduodenectomy.
