Abstract
Current WHO terminology and recent publications have classified tumoral (grossly visible) intraductal pre-invasive neoplasms of bile duct (TIDN) into three categories: intraductal papillary neoplasm of bile duct (IPNB), intraductal papillary oncocytic neoplasm (IOPN), and intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm (ITPN). A total of 227 cases of TIDN and related lesions ≥3 mm in height were examined by 10 biliary pathologists referring to these 3 categories and two pathologic gradings: two-tiered system (low- and high-grade dysplasia) and modified types 1 and 2 subclassification. Among them, IPNB was the most frequent (183 cases), followed by IOPN (28 cases), while ITPN was rare (2 cases), and interobserver agreement in this classification was "substantial" (κ-value, 0.657). The interobserver agreement of two-tiered grading system of TIDN was "slight" (κ-value, 0.201), while that of modified types 1 and 2 subclassification was "moderate" (κ-value, 0.515), and 42 % were of type 1, and 58 % were of type 2. Type 1 TIDN showed occasional stromal invasion (6.7 %), whereas type 2 TIDN was frequently associated with stromal invasion (49.6 %) (p < 0.01). In conclusion, the classification of TIDN into three categories and modified types 1 and 2 subclassification are a practically applicable classification and grading system for TIDN.
