RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is associated with a 5-year survival rate of less than 6%, and current treatments have limited efficacy. The diagnosis of PDAC is mainly based on a cytologic analysis of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) samples. However, the collected specimens may prove noncontributory in a significant number of cases, delaying patient management and treatment. The combination of EUS-FNA sample examination and KRAS mutation detection can improve the sensitivity for diagnosis. In this context, the material used for molecular analysis may condition performance. METHODS: The authors prospectively compared the performance of cytologic analysis combined with a KRAS droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) assay for PDAC diagnosis using either conventional formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded cytologic samples or needle-rinsing fluids. RESULTS: Molecular testing of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded cytologic samples was easier to set up, but the authors observed that the treatment of preanalytic samples, in particular the fixation process, drastically reduced ddPCR sensitivity, increasing the risk of false-negative results. Conversely, the analysis of dedicated, fresh needle-rinsing fluid samples appeared to be ideal for ddPCR analysis; it had greater sensitivity and was easily to implement in clinical use. In particular, fluid collection by the endoscopist, transportation to the laboratory, and subsequent freezing did not affect DNA quantity or quality. Moreover, the addition of KRAS mutation detection to cytologic examination improved diagnosis performance, regardless of the source of the sample. CONCLUSIONS: Considering all of these aspects, the authors propose the use of an integrated flowchart for the KRAS molecular testing of EUS-FNA samples in clinical routine.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Hepaticojejunostomy (HJ) is the gold standard procedure for repairing major bile duct injury (BDI). Dilation status of the BD before repair has not been assessed as a risk factor for anastomotic stricture. METHOD: This retrospective single-centre study was performed on a population of 87 patients with BDI repaired by HJ between 2007 and 2021. Dilation status was assessed preoperatively, and dilation was defined as the presence of visible peripheral intrahepatic BDs with remaining BD diameter > 8 mm. The short- and long-term outcomes of HJ were assessed according to preoperative dilation status. RESULTS: Before final repair, the BDs were dilated (dBD) in 56.3% of patients and not dilated (ND) in 43.7%. Patients with ND at the time of repair had more severe BDI injury than those with dBD (94.7% vs. 77.6%, p = 0.026). The rate of preoperative cholangitis was lower in patients with ND than in those with dBD (10.5% vs. 44.9%, p = 0.001). The rate of short-term morbidity after HJ was 33.3% (ND vs. dBD: 38.8% vs. 26.3%, p = 0.32). Long-term anastomotic stricture rate was 5.7% with a mean follow-up period of 61.3 months. There were no differences in long-term biliary complications according to dilation status (ND vs. dBD: 12.2% vs. 10.5%, p = 1). CONCLUSION: Dilation status of the BD before HJ for BDI seemed to have no impact on short- or long-term outcomes. Both surgical and radiological external biliary drainages after BDI appear to be acceptable options to reduce cholangitis before repair without increasing risk for long-term anastomotic stricture.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: EUS-guided radiofrequency ablation (EUS-RFA) has been described as a potentially curative option for solid and cystic pancreatic neoplasms. We aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of pancreatic EUS-RFA in a large study population. METHODS: A retrospective study retrieving all consecutive patients who underwent pancreatic EUS-RFA during 2019 and 2020 in France was conducted. Indication, procedural characteristics, early and late adverse events (AEs), and clinical outcomes were recorded. Risk factors for AEs and factors related to complete tumor ablation were assessed on univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS: One hundred patients (54% men, 64.8 ± 17.6 years old) affected by 104 neoplasms were included. Sixty-four neoplasms were neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs), 23 were metastases, and 10 were intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms with mural nodules. No procedure-related mortality was observed, and 22 AEs were reported. Proximity of pancreatic neoplasms (≤1 mm) to the main pancreatic duct was the only independent risk factor for AEs (odds ratio [OR), 4.10; 95% confidence interval [CI), 1.02-15.22; P = .04). Fifty-nine patients (60.2%) achieved a complete tumor response, 31 (31.6%) a partial response, and 9 (9.2%) achieved no response. On multivariate analysis, NENs (OR, 7.95; 95% CI, 1.66-51.79; P < .001) and neoplasm size <20 mm (OR, 5.26; 95% CI, 2.17-14.29; P < .001) were independently related to complete tumor ablation. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this large study confirm an overall acceptable safety profile for pancreatic EUS-RFA. Close proximity (≤1 mm) to the main pancreatic duct represents an independent risk factor for AEs. Good clinical outcomes in terms of tumor ablation were observed, especially for small NENs.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: During endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), access to the common bile duct (CBD) can be problematic after unintentional insertion of the guidewire into the pancreatic duct. We conducted a prospective, randomized study in order to compare biliary cannulation success rates of early double-guidewire (EDG) and repeated single-guidewire (RSG) techniques in patients with inadvertent passage of the guidewire into the pancreatic duct. METHODS: Patients with a native papilla were randomly assigned to either the EDG or RSG groups after unintentional insertion of the guidewire into the pancreatic duct. The primary outcome was successful selective CBD cannulation within 10 minutes. The secondary outcomes were successful final selective bile duct cannulation, time to bile duct cannulation, and frequency of post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP). RESULTS: 142 patients were randomized and selective bile duct cannulation was achieved in 57/68 patients (84 %) in the EDG group and in 37/74 patients (50 %) in the RSG group within 10 minutes (relative risk 1.34; 95 % confidence interval 1.08-6.18; P < 0.001). The overall final selective bile duct cannulation rate was 99.3 %. The time to access the CBD was shorter using the EDG technique (6.0 vs. 10.4 minutes; P = 0.002). Mild PEP was not observed more frequently in the EDG group than in the RSG group. CONCLUSION: The EDG technique significantly increased the success rate of biliary duct cannulation within 10 minutes compared with an RSG approach.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The results of only a few endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) for pancreatic solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) have been published, and the safety of the procedure has never been investigated. Our study compared the recurrence rate in patients with and without preoperative EUS-FNA. METHODS: This European multicenter registry-based study was conducted in 22 digestive units, and retrospectively included all patients who underwent complete resection of a pancreatic SPN from 2000 to 2018. Patients with and without initial EUS-FNA were compared, and postsurgery recurrence and the associated risk factors were evaluated. RESULTS: A complete resection of a pancreatic SPN was performed in 149 patients (133 women, 89%), with a mean age of 34 (standard deviation, 14) years. There were no significant differences between the with (78 patients) and without (71 patients) EUS-FNA groups, except for age and tumor size and location.Preoperative EUS-FNA allowed pancreatic SPN diagnosis in 63/78 cases (81%). After a mean follow-up of 43 (standard deviation, 36) months, recurrence was noted in 4 patients (2.7%). Preoperative EUS-FNA was not correlated with recurrence, but an older age (P = 0.005) was significant. CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative EUS-FNA does not affect pancreatic SPN recurrence. In this series, old age was significantly correlated with recurrence.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The European Consensus 2018 established a new algorithm with absolute and relative criteria for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms of the pancreas (IPMN) management. The aim of this study was to validate these criteria and analyse the outcomes in function of the surgical procedure and IPMN subtype. METHODS: Clinical, radiological and surgical data (procedure, morbidity/mortality rates) of patients who underwent surgery for IPMN between 2007 and 2017. The predictive value of the different criteria was analysed. RESULTS: 124 patients (men 67%; mean age 65 years) underwent surgery for IPMN (n = 62 malignant tumours; 50%). Jaundice, cyst ≥4 cm and Wirsung duct size 5-9.9 mm or ≥ 10 mm were significantly associated with malignancy (4.77 < OR < 11.85 p < 0.0001). The positive predictive value of any isolated criterion ranged from 71 to 87%, whereas that of three relative criteria together reached 100%. The mortality and morbidity (grade III-IV complications according to the Dindo-Clavien classification) rates were 3 and 8%, respectively. Morbidity/mortality after duodenopancreatectomy and total pancreatectomy were significantly higher for benign IPMN (p = 0.01). CONCLUSION: Considering the morbidity associated with extended surgery, particularly for benign IPMN, the results of the present study suggest that high-risk surgery should be considered only in the presence of three relative criteria and including the surgery type in the decision-making algorithm.

RESUMO

Background and study aims Endoscopic sphincterotomy plus large-balloon dilation (ES-LBD) has been reported as an alternative to endoscopic sphincterotomy for the removal of bile duct stones. This multicenter study compared complete endoscopic sphincterotomy with vs. without large-balloon dilation for the removal of large bile duct stones. This is the first randomized multicenter study to evaluate these procedures in patients with exclusively large common bile duct (CBD) stones. Methods Between 2010 and 2015, 150 patients with one or more common bile duct stones ≥ 13 mm were randomized to two groups: 73 without balloon dilation (conventional group), 77 with balloon dilation (ES-LBD group). Mechanical lithotripsy was subsequently performed only if the stones were too large for removal through the papilla. Endoscopic sphincterotomy was complete in both groups. Patients could switch to ES-LBD if the conventional procedure failed. Results There was no between-group difference in number and size of stones. CBD stone clearance was achieved in 74.0 % of patients in the conventional group and 96.1 % of patients in the ES-LBD group (P < 0.001). Mechanical lithotripsy was needed significantly more often in the conventional group (35.6 % vs. 3.9 %; P < 0.001). There was no difference in terms of morbidity (9.3 % in the conventional group vs. 8.1 % in the ES-LBD group; P = 0.82). The cost and procedure time were not significantly different between the groups overall, but became significantly higher for patients in the conventional group who underwent mechanical lithotripsy. The conventional procedure failed in 19 patients, 15 of whom underwent a rescue ES-LBD procedure that successfully cleared all stones. Conclusions Complete endoscopic sphincterotomy with large-balloon dilation for the removal of large CBD stones has similar safety but superior efficiency to conventional treatment, and should be considered as the first-line step in the treatment of large bile duct stones and in rescue treatment.Trial registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02592811).

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Cyclosporine (CsA) is an effective agent for treating patients with acute steroid-refractory ulcerative colitis (UC). The aim was to assess endoscopic and histologic responses to CsA and to determine their predictive value on UC outcome. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Consecutive UC patients who received intravenous CsA for an acute refractory UC were included when they had endoscopic assessments with biopsies at entry and, at CsA interruption in responders. Mucosal healing (MH) was defined by Mayo endoscopic subscore ≤1 and, histologic response (HR) by the absence of basal plasmocytosis or a Geboes score <3.1. RESULTS: Among 21 patients who responded to CsA, MH was achieved in 81%. Survival rates without relapse at 2 years were 79% and 25% in patients with MH and without MH, respectively (p=0.04). HR was observed in 84% of patients according to basal plasmocytosis and in 68% according to Geboes score. Multivariate analysis revealed that a Mayo endoscopic subscore of 0 was the only prognostic factor associated with absence of relapse (RR=12; 95%CI: 1.05-136.79). CONCLUSION: CsA provides MH and HR in most of UC patients responding to this drug. As suggested with other UC treatments, a complete MH with CsA has a good prognostic value.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS: A new core biopsy needle for endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided sampling has recently been developed. The aim of this prospective multicenter study was to compare this needle with a standard needle in patients with solid pancreatic masses. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Consecutive patients with solid pancreatic masses referred to 17 centers for EUS-guided sampling were included. Each patient had two passes with a standard 22G needle and a single pass with a 22G core needle performed in a randomized order. Samples from both needles were separately processed for liquid-based cytology and cell-block preparation and were assessed independently by two blinded expert pathologists. The primary endpoint was the accuracy of the detection of malignancy. The reference standard was based on further cytohistological analysis obtained under ultrasound or computed tomography scanning, endoscopic or surgical guidance, and/or by clinical follow-up with repeated imaging examinations for at least 12 months. The secondary endpoints were the rate of technical failure and the quality of the cytohistological samples obtained. RESULTS: Of the 80 patients included (49 men; mean age 67.1 ±â€Š11.1), 87.5 % had final malignant diagnoses (adenocarcinoma n = 62, 77.5 %). There was no difference between the needles in diagnostic accuracy (standard needle 92.5 % vs. core needle 90 %; P = 0.68) or technical failure. Both pathologists found the overall sample quality significantly better for the standard needle (expert 1, P = 0.009; expert 2, P = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS: The diagnostic accuracy of EUS sampling for solid pancreatic masses using standard and core needles seems comparable but with a better overall histological sample quality for the former.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Iatrogenic intestinal tract perforation and anastomotic disunion traditionally required surgical treatment. Complete anastomotic break was considered until now as an absolute contraindication for endoscopic management. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this series was to show that endoscopic management is able to treat a spectrum of bowel wall breaks, from focal perforation to complete anastomotic disunion. SETTING: A single-center prospective cohort study. PATIENTS: Nine consecutive patients with nonmalignant gastrointestinal perforations were treated with endoscopic stenting between 2005 and 2008. Perforations were related to endoscopic perforations (4 cases: 2 esophageal and 2 colorectal), postoperative fistula or leakage (2 cases: 1 colorectal anastomosis and 1 esophageal), and complete anastomotic disunion (3 cases: 2 ileoanal anastomosis and 1 esophagogastric anastomosis). INTERVENTIONS: All 9 patients underwent endoscopic installation of fully covered stents under endoscopic and radiologic guidance, sometimes associated with simultaneous endoscopic collection drainage. Oral feeding was resumed when radiologic contrast studies showed no residual leak. RESULTS: The outcome in all 9 patients was favorable. Two migrated stents were replaced, and 2 stents were spontaneously expelled without consequence. All stents were withdrawn within an average of 5 weeks. LIMITATIONS: Uncontrolled pilot study, small sample size. CONCLUSION: The successful endoscopic management of bowel wall breaks ranging from perforation to complete postoperative disunion with fully covered stent could support a new concept of "stent-guided regeneration and re-epithelialization." Controlled trials are needed before this new endoscopic treatment can be proposed as a substitute for traditional treatments.

RESUMO

The expression of the CDX2 gene, a crucial regulator of gut homeostasis, is altered in human colorectal cancers in parallel with de-differentiation. Here, we have investigated the chromosomal status of CDX2 in human sporadic colorectal cancers with the phenotype of chromosomal instability. Allelic imbalance determination showed frequent rearrangements at the CDX2 locus. The rearrangements correlated with CDX2 gene amplification, as assessed by quantitative PCR analysis. However, they were not predictive of the Cdx2 protein pattern. These data suggest that mechanisms other than structural alterations at the CDX2 locus account for the change of expression in colorectal cancers.
