Abstract:
Objective To summarize the clinicopathological features of ampullary cancer,and investigate the diagnosis and treatment strategy for ampullary cancer.Methods The clinical data of 187 patients with ampullary cancer who were admitted to the Peking Union Hospital from January 2000 to December 2010 were retrospectively analyzed.According to different surgical procedures applied,patients were divided into pancreaticeduodenectomy (PD) group (162 patients) and local resection group (25 patients).Survival curve was drawn by using Kaplan-Meier method,and the difference in survival rate between the 2 groups was compared by using Log-rank test.All data were analyzed by using t test or chi-square test.Results The positive diagnostic rates of B-ultrasound,computed tomography (CT),magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) were 9.3％ ( 15/161 ),43.9％ (65/148),21.3％ (19/89) and 83.9％ ( 135/161 ),respectively.There were 87 patients with well differentiated adenocarcinoma,64 with moderate differentiated adenocarcinoma,27 with low differentiated adenocarcinoma and 9 with tubular canceration.There were no significant differences in survival rate between patients with ampullary cancer in T1 or T2 stage who received PD or local resection ( x2 =3.163,P ＞0.05).The prognosis of patients with ampullary cancer in T3 or T4 stage who received PD were superior to those who received local resection ( x2 =6.309,P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusions Most of the ampullary cancer is well differentiated adenocarcinoma,and ERCP has a higher diagnostic rate than B-ultrasound,CT and MRI.Local resection is an ideal treatment for patients with ampullary cancer in T1 or T2 stage,while for patients with ampullary cancer in T3 or T4 stage,PD is the first choice of treatment.
