Endoscopic and Clinicopathological Features of Superficial Non-Ampullary Duodenal Tumor Based on the Mucin Phenotypes.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

We aimed to clarify the endoscopic/clinicopathological features of superficial non-ampullary duodenal epithelial tumors (SNADETs) based on their mucin phenotypes.

Methods

We analyzed 62 SNADET lesions and classified them based on mucin phenotypic expression. Endoscopic and clinicopathological findings were compared according to mucin phenotypes.

Results

Eleven lesions had the gastric phenotype (GP) and 43 lesions had the intestinal phenotype (IP). All GP lesions were located in the first portion of the duodenum, while most IP lesions (72.1%) were located in the second portion (p < 0.01). Tumor size was significantly larger in the GP than in the IP group (14.4 mm vs. 10.2 mm, p < 0.05). Reddish color (72.7% in GP vs. 37.2% in IP, p < 0.05), type 0-I (72.7% vs. 11.6%, p < 0.01), lobular/granular pattern (81.8% vs. 4.7%, p < 0.01), and category 4/5 in Vienna classification (81.8% vs. 30.2%, p < 0.01) were observed significantly more often in the GP than in the IP group. Regarding findings of magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging (M-NBI), white opaque substance (22.2% in GP vs. 89.7% in IP, p < 0.01) and light blue crest (0% vs. 43.6%, p < 0.05) were significantly less frequently observed in the GP group. Oval-shaped marginal epithelium (66.7% vs. 17.9%, p < 0.01), dense pattern (55.6% vs. 2.6%, p < 0.01), and dilatation of the intervening part (100% vs. 12.8%, p < 0.01) were more frequently observed in the GP group.

Conclusions

SNADETs showed distinct endoscopic/clinicopathological features according to the mucin phenotype. Tumor location, coloration, macroscopic type, and endoscopic findings including M-NBI are useful to distinguish the mucin phenotypes of SNADETs.

Project description:AbstractSporadic non-ampullary duodenal adenoma (SNADA) is a rare disease, and therefore, its clinical characteristics have not been comprehensively investigated. Furthermore, owing to the high complication rates and severity of endoscopic resection, treatment strategies vary among facilities. In the present study, we aimed to clarify the clinical characteristics and course of SNADA.We extracted clinical and histological records of SNADA cases diagnosed in 11 hospitals between September 1999 and August 2014. The patients were divided into "no-resection" and "resection" groups based on the initial treatment approach. We investigated the long-term outcome of the "no-resection" group and treatment results of the "resection" group, with particular interest in endoscopic resection.Overall, 299 patients were diagnosed with SNADA. The median age at diagnosis was 67 years (range, 31-88 years), with approximately twice as many men as women. The median tumor size was 8.0 mm (2-60 mm). In total, 161 patients were initially selected for no-resection and 138 underwent resection. Age >70 years and the presence of either severe illness or poor performance status were significantly related to opting for no-resection. In the no-resection group, 101 patients underwent endoscopic follow-up for at least 1 year. During the observational period (2.5 ± 2.2 years), 27 lesions (27%) disappeared following cold forceps biopsy, and 13 lesions (14%) presented lateral growth. Four lesions (4%) changed to mucosal carcinoma, 3 were treated endoscopically, and 1 was surgically resected. Nineteen patients died; however, no one died of duodenal carcinoma. In the endoscopic resection group, en bloc resection was achieved in 78% of patients. However, the complication rate for perforation was 7%, and endoscopic submucosal dissection was associated with a 36% perforation rate.With the low incidence of cancer development and no disease specific death, the strategy of initially not performing resection could be considered especially for the older adults, poor-prognosis patients, or small lesions.
