Abstract

Pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) have been increasingly identified in recent years, encompassing a wide spectrum ranging from benign non-evolutive to malignant invasive lesions. Despite various clinical, laboratory, imaging, endoscopic ultrasound, and cytohistological features that may aid clinicians in the complex differential diagnosis of PCLs, only a few pathognomic signs distinctive to specific PCLs have been identified. Although rarely encountered, their proper recognition is crucial for the appropriate management of PCLs. The aim of our review is to extensively discuss and illustrate pathognomic signs in the setting of PCLs.

Abstract

Surgery for lesions of the proximal part of the pancreatic body or neck can be challenging, and when enucleation is not possible, central pancreatectomy is an option. Laparoscopic central pancreatic resection is rarely described worldwide; it is considered a difficult procedure mainly because of the risk of double pancreatic fistula developing at two sites of resection. However, it seems to be an excellent alternative to distal pancreatectomy or pancreaticoduodenectomy, with the advantages of preserving functioning parenchyma and reducing endocrine and exocrine failure. Nevertheless, patients with pancreatic lesions requiring central resection are often managed with the open approach in many hospitals due to the complexity of total laparoscopic central pancreatectomy, which requires advanced laparoscopic skills, expertise and experience. Here, we report a case of a 29-year-old female who underwent total laparoscopic central pancreatic resection with gastro-pancreatic anastomosis for symptomatic serous cystadenoma. We discuss the details of case management and review the relevant literature.

6. Exposed endoscopic full-thickness resection for duodenal submucosal tumors: Current status and future perspectives

Author

Antonino Granata, Alberto Martino, Francesco Paolo Zito, Dario Ligresti, Michele Amata, Giovanni Lombardi, and Mario Traina

Abstract

Exposed endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFTR), with or without laparoscopic assistance, is an emergent natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery technique with promising safety and efficacy for the management of gastrointestinal submucosal tumors (SMTs) arising from the muscularis propria (MP), especially of the gastric wall. To date, evidence concerning duodenal exposed EFTR is lacking, mainly due to both the technical difficulty involved because of the special duodenal anatomy and concerns about safety and effectiveness of transmural wall defect closure. However, given the non-negligible morbidity and mortality associated with duodenal surgery, the recent availability of dedicated endoscopic tools for tissue-approximation capable to realize full-thickness defect closure could help in promoting the adoption of this endosurgical technique among referral centers. The aim of our study was to review the current evidence concerning exposed EFTR with or without laparoscopic assistance for the treatment of MP-arising duodenal SMTs.
