SpyGlass in Preoperative Diagnostics of Presumed Main Duct IPMNs: Efficacy and Novel Insights on Complications
- Conditions
- Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm
- Registration Number
- NCT03062124
- Lead Sponsor
- Helsinki University Central Hospital
- Brief Summary
Distinguishing intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) from other pancreatic cystic lesions is essential as IPMNs bear risk of becoming malignant. Differentiating the main pancreatic duct involving IPMNs (MD-IPMNs) with imaging can be difficult. Single-operator peroral pancreatoscopy (SOPP) has shown to be a promising method offering additional information on suspected lesions in the main pancreatic duct (MD). We aimed to establish the role of SOPP in preoperative diagnostics of presumed MD-IPMNs. A secondary objective was to identify factors that contribute to SOPP-related complications.
- Detailed Description
In this multicenter, partly prospective, but mostly retrospective cohort study, 101 SOPPs were performed due to presumed MD-IPMNs in three centers. As a key outcome, the rate of how often visual appearance of MD, and/or MD flushing liquid samples and biopsies taken during SOPP affected further clinical care, was determined. Secondly, post-SOPP complications according to Cotton consensus criteria, diameter of MD, use of prophylactic nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and pancreatic stents, duration of SOPP and timing of pancreatic sphincterotomy (PS) were documented.
