ABSTRACT
Pancreatic cancer primarily arises from microscopic precancerous lesions, such as pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN) and acinar-to-ductal metaplasia (ADM). However, no established method exists for predicting pancreatic precancerous conditions. Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) can detect changes in pancreatic parenchymal histology, including fibrosis. This study aimed to elucidate the relationship between pancreatic parenchymal EUS findings and microscopic precancerous lesions. We retrospectively analyzed 114 patients with pancreatobiliary tumors resected between 2010 and 2020 and evaluated the association between pancreatic parenchymal EUS findings and the number of PanIN, ADM, and pancreatic duct gland (PDG). Of the 114 patients, 33 (29.0%), 55 (48.2%), and 26 (22.8%) had normal EUS findings, hyperechoic foci/stranding without lobularity, and hyperechoic foci/stranding with lobularity, respectively. Multivariate analyses revealed that abnormal EUS findings were significantly associated with the frequency of PanIN (hyperechoic foci/stranding without lobularity OR [95% CI] = 2.7 [1.0-7.3], with lobularity 6.5 [1.9-22.5], Ptrend = 0.01) and ADM (hyperechoic foci/stranding without lobularity 3.1 [1.1-8.2], with lobularity 9.7 [2.6-36.3], Ptrend = 0.003) but not with PDG (hyperechoic foci/stranding without lobularity 2.2 [0.8-5.8], with lobularity 3.2 [1.0-10.2], Ptrend = 0.12). We observed a trend toward a significantly higher number of precancerous lesions in the following order normal findings, hyperechoic foci/stranding without lobularity, and hyperechoic foci/stranding with lobularity. Pancreatic parenchymal EUS findings were associated with the increased frequency of PanIN and ADM. Lobularity may help predict the increased number of precancerous lesions.
