BACKGROUND: The risk and prognosis of pancreatobiliary cancer and in patients with autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) and IgG4-related sclerosing cholangitis (IgG4-SC) remain unclear. Therefore, we retrospectively investigated the risk of pancreatobiliary cancer and prognosis in patients with AIP and IgG4-SC. METHODS: Patients with AIP and IgG4-SC at seven centers between 1998 and 2022 were investigated. The following data were evaluated: (1) the number of cancers diagnosed and standardized incidence ratio (SIR) for pancreatobiliary and other cancers during the observational period and (2) prognosis after diagnosis of AIP and IgG4-SC using standardized mortality ratio (SMR). RESULTS: This study included 201 patients with AIP and IgG4-SC. The mean follow-up period was 5.7 years. Seven cases of pancreatic cancer were diagnosed, and the SIR was 8.11 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 7.29-9.13). Three cases of bile duct cancer were diagnosed, and the SIR was 6.89 (95% CI: 6.20-7.75). The SMR after the diagnosis of AIP and IgG4-SC in cases that developed pancreatobiliary cancer were 4.03 (95% CI: 2.83-6.99). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with autoimmune pancreatitis and IgG4-SC were associated with a high risk of pancreatic and bile duct cancer. Patients with AIP and IgG4-SC have a worse prognosis when they develop pancreatobiliary cancer.
