PAPILLECTOMY FOR AMPULLARY ADENOMAS: AN EDUCATIONAL OVERVIEW AND CASE-BASED DEMONSTRATION

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video transcript discusses papillectomy for ampullary adenomas, which are prevalent benign lesions that can progress to carcinoma. Endoscopic resection is the recommended treatment for lesions under 2-3 cm, with confirmatory biopsies essential prior to resection. Complications can occur at a rate of 15-35%, with prophylactic pancreatic stent placement reducing the risk of pancreatitis. A case study of a 65-year-old female undergoing ampullectomy demonstrated successful resection of an ampullary adenoma with minimal intraductal extension. Margin ablation and surveillance ductoscopy were used to ensure complete eradication of the lesion. Long-term monitoring following resection is recommended by the ESGE.
