Abstract
Cancers of the pancreatobiliary tract are diseases with unfavourable prognoses. In the last couple of decades, two types of lesions have been described as precursors that precede pancreatobiliary cancers. These include incidental microscopic (flat) lesions known as pancreatic intra-epithelial neoplasia and biliary intra-epithelial neoplasia, and grossly visible, mass-forming lesions (tumoral intra-epithelial neoplasia) including intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms, intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasms, intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasms, intraductal papillary neoplasms of the bile duct and intracholecystic papillary neoplasms. Early detection and adequate treatment of these precursor lesions, especially the second group, have the potential to prevent pancreatobiliary cancer or at least improve its prognosis. In this review, we discuss their histopathology and recent updates on molecular profiling of these intraductal neoplasms of the pancreatobiliary tract.

Intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm (ITPN) of the pancreas: A distinct entity among pancreatic tumors. Histopathology 2022; 81:297-309. [PMID: 35583805 PMCID: PMC9544156 DOI: 10.1111/his.14698] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2021] [Revised: 05/03/2022] [Accepted: 05/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Aims Intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm (ITPN) of the pancreas is a recently recognized pancreatic tumor entity. Here we aimed to determine the most important features with a systematic review coupled with an integrated statistical approach. Methods and results PubMed, SCOPUS, and Embase were searched for studies reporting data on pancreatic ITPN. The clinicopathological, immunohistochemical, and molecular data were summarized. Then a comprehensive survival analysis and a comparative analysis of the molecular alterations of ITPN with those of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) from reference cohorts (including the International Cancer Genome Consortium‐ ICGC dataset and The Cancer Genome Atlas, TCGA program) were conducted. The core findings of 128 patients were as follows: (i) Clinicopathological parameters: pancreatic head is the most common site; presence of an associated adenocarcinoma was reported in 60% of cases, but with rare nodal metastasis. (ii) Immunohistochemistry: MUC1 (>90%) and MUC6 (70%) were the most frequently expressed mucins. ITPN lacked the intestinal marker MUC2; unlike IPMN, it did not express MUC5AC. (iii) Molecular landscape: Compared with PDAC/IPMN, the classic pancreatic drivers KRAS, TP53, CDKN2A, SMAD4, GNAS, and RNF43 were less altered in ITPN (P < 0.001), whereas MCL amplifications, FGFR2 fusions, and PI3KCA mutations were commonly altered (P < 0.001). (iv) Survival analysis: ITPN with a “pure” branch duct involvement showed the lowest risk of recurrence. Conclusion ITPN is a distinct pancreatic neoplasm with specific clinicopathological and molecular characteristics. Its recognition is fundamental for its clinical/prognostic implications and for the enrichment of potential targets for precision oncology.

Abstract
PURPOSE Intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm is a rare pancreatic tumor. The purpose of this study was to clarify the recurrence type and prognosis in recurrent cases after intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm resection. METHODS PubMed was searched for previous reports on surgical resection of intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas that were published from 2009 to July 2020. The clinical features obtained from these reports were summarized and analyzed. RESULTS The clinicopathological data of 35 intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm cases were obtained. Of these, 21 were males, and 14 were females, with an average age of 57.9 years old. Invasive findings were observed in 21 of 35 patients (60%). Recurrence was observed in 11 of the 35 cases (31.4%), including remnant pancreatic recurrence in 6 cases (17.1%) and liver metastasis in 5 cases (14.3%). The tumor size was significantly larger in the liver metastasis group than in the remnant pancreas recurrence group (P = 0.04), and patients with liver metastases tended to have a poorer prognosis than those with remnant pancreas recurrence. CONCLUSIONS The recurrence type of intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm resection was mainly remnant pancreatic recurrence and liver metastasis recurrence. Total pancreatectomy for remnant pancreatic recurrence may be suitable because of its good prognosis.

Abstract
CONTEXT.— Although most pancreatic and bile duct neoplasms are solid, mucinous cystic neoplasms and intraductal neoplasms have been increasingly recognized even when clinically silent, thanks to the increased use of sensitive imaging techniques. Cystic and intraductal neoplasms of the pancreas are often resectable and curable and constitute about 5% of all pancreatic neoplasms. Owing to their preinvasive nature and different biology, recognition of these entities remains a major priority. Mucinous cystic neoplasms are histologically and clinically distinct from other cystic pancreatic neoplasms. Pancreatic intraductal neoplasms encompass 3 major entities: intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm, intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasm, and intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm. Intraductal papillary neoplasms of bile ducts are also preinvasive mass-forming neoplasms with both similarities and differences with their pancreatic counterparts. All of these pancreatobiliary neoplasms have diverse and distinctive clinicopathologic, genetic, and prognostic variations. OBJECTIVE.— To review the clinical, pathologic, and molecular features of mucinous cystic and intraductal neoplasms of the pancreatobiliary tract. DATA SOURCES.— Literature review, diagnostic manuals, and guidelines. CONCLUSIONS.— This review will briefly describe well-known clinical and pathologic features and will focus on selected recently described aspects of morphology, grading, classification, and genomic alterations of cystic and intraductal neoplasms of the pancreatobiliary tract.

Abstract
RATIONALE Intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm (ITPN) is a rare type of pancreatic epithelial neoplasm. We report 2 cases of ITPN and detail the imaging findings. PATIENT CONCERNS The 1st case was a 36-year-old woman who complained of jaundice, yellow urine and diarrhea. She accepted ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination before surgery, which all revealed a mass in the pancreatic head. The 2nd case was a 62-year-old woman who was admitted to our hospital for the treatment of a pancreatic tumor. The MRI showed a mass filled the mian pancreatic duct in the head and neck. DIAGNOSIS The ITPN is an intraductal, grossly visible, tubule-forming epithelial neoplasm with high-grade dysplasia and ductal differentiation without overt mucin production. INTERVENTIONS The 1st patient received percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage procedure, endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration, pancreatoduodenectomy, cholecystectomy, and lymphadenectomy successively. The 2nd patient received pancreaticoduodenectomy, cholecystectomy, and partial gastrectomy. OUTCOMES Two months after surgery, the follow-up MRI revealed hepatic metastasis of the 1st patient. She is still alive now. The 2nd patient was lost to follow-up. LESSONS The ITPN is a rare pancreatic neoplasm and its clinical symptoms are atypical. It is difficult to make accurate diagnosis of ITPN before surgery even though various imaging modalities are used in combination. When a solid mass growing in the lumen of the pancreatic duct, ITPN should be taken into consideration.

Abstract
Background Since the concept of intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm (ITPN) was introduced in the current World Health Organization classification of tumors, the number of reports of ITPN occurrence has increased gradually. However, ITPN is usually located in the main pancreatic duct, with few reports of a branch duct ITPN. As a result, imaging protocols for the diagnosis of a branch duct ITPN have not been established. Case presentation We report a case of a concurrent presentation of a branch duct ITPN and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) in the head of the pancreas, with a superior mesenteric artery (SMA) aneurysm. Initially, the cystic masses in the pancreatic head were diagnosed as branch duct IPMNs, with treatment consisting of a pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy, in combination with an aneurysmectomy performed for treatment of the SMA aneurysm. Pathological examination confirmed these cysts were a combination of branch-type ITPN and IPMN. The patient recovered from the treatment without complication, with no evidence of recurrence over a period of 34 months post-surgery. Conclusion This case report of a synchronous presentation of an ITPN and IPMN indicates the difficulty in differentiating these two types of neoplasms in the branch duct of the pancreatic head.

Abstract
PURPOSE Biliary tract intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasms (BT-ITPNs) and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (BT-IPMNs) are rare and poorly described. Herein, we examined the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of BT-ITPNs and BT-IPMNs and correlated them with key gross and microscopic pathological findings. METHODS We retrospectively identified five patients with definitive pathological findings of BT-ITPN and available diagnostic MRI findings. Key MRI features were correlated to the gross and microscopic pathology and compared to those of BT-IPMNs (19 patients). RESULTS All BT-ITPNs showed ductal dilatation and visible intraductal soft tissue with peribiliary liver parenchyma enhancement. One BT-ITPN patient had synchronous lung metastases, and another showed rapid tumor growth rate. The intraductal soft tissue proportion of BT-ITPNs was significantly more than that of BT-IPMNs (p < 0.05). CA-199 level was elevated in 60% of BT-ITPN cases. The overall combined 1-year and 3-year survival rates in the BT-ITPN group was 100% and 40%, and in the BT-IPMN group was 100% and 58%, respectively. A high intraductal soft tissue proportion, a lack of intraluminal mucin, and immunohistochemical absence of MUC5AC are radiological and pathological characteristics that differentiate BT-ITPN from BT-IPMN. CONCLUSIONS Although rare, BT-ITPN should be suspected when solid intraductal soft tissue and peribiliary liver parenchyma enhancement are present, particularly if the bile duct upstream and downstream of the lesion have a normal diameter, without mucin. Owing to the aggressive nature of the tumor, recognition of these features may indicate the need for more aggressive treatment in selected patients.

Abstract
Intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm (ITPN) is a relatively recently described member of the pancreatic intraductal neoplasm family. Thus, the literature on its histologic and immunohistochemical features, clinical behavior, and its similarities and differences from other pancreatic neoplasms is limited. Thirty-three cases of ITPN, the largest series to date, were identified. Immunohistochemical labeling for cytokeratins, glycoproteins, pancreatic enzymes, markers for intestinal and neuroendocrine differentiation, and antibodies associated with genetic alterations previously described in pancreatic neoplasms was performed. Clinicopathologic features and survival was assessed. Seventeen patients were female and 14 were male. Mean age was 55 years (range, 25 to 79 y). Median overall tumor size was 4.5 cm (range, 0.5 to 15 cm). Forty-five percent of the tumors occurred in the head, 32% in the body/tail, and 23% showed diffuse involvement. Microscopically, the tumors were characterized by intraductal nodules composed of tightly packed small tubular glands lined by cuboidal cells lacking apparent mucin. Although it was often challenging to determine its extent, invasion was present in 71%. Almost all tumors labeled for CAM5.2, CK7, and CK19; most expressed CA19.9, MUC1, and MUC6. CDX2, MUC2, trypsin, chymotrypsin, chromogranin, and synaptophysin were not expressed. SMAD4 expression was retained in 100%; p16 expression and p53 overexpression was seen in 33% and 27%, respectively. Follow-up information was available for 22 patients (median follow-up, 45 mo; range, 11 to 173 mo). Two patients with invasive carcinoma died of disease at 23 and 41 months, respectively. One patient died of unrelated causes at 49 months. Twelve patients were alive with disease. Seven patients were alive with no evidence of disease. The overall 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates were 100% in patients without an invasive component and 100%, 91%, and 71%, respectively, in patients with an invasive component (P=0.7). ITPN is a distinct clinicopathologic entity in the pancreas. Despite the difficulties of determining the extent of invasive carcinoma in many cases, the overall outcome seems to be relatively favorable and substantially better than that of conventional pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, even when only the cases with invasive carcinoma are considered.

Abstract
A 74-year-old male was admitted to Departments of Surgery, Toyonaka Municipal Hospital (Osaka, Japan) for treatment of a pancreatic tumor. Contrast enhanced computed tomography (CT) revealed a mass with small cystic lesions in the pancreatic head and body. Fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography/CT revealed an abnormal uptake of fluorodeoxyglucose, corresponding to the mass lesions. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed rough mucosa near the opening of the accessory pancreatic duct, and the mucosa biopsy exhibited adenocarcinoma with no mucin observed. The preoperative diagnosis was pancreatic intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm (ITPN) with cancerous lesions, and a total pancreatectomy with splenectomy was performed. The resected tissue specimen revealed a solid tumor occupying the entire pancreas with intraductal growth into the main pancreatic duct. Histological examination revealed high-grade dysplastic cells in a tubulopapillary growth pattern without overt mucin production beyond the pancreatic duct. Immunohistochemical staining analysis of the tumor was positive for cytokeratin (CK)7, CK19 and mucin (MUC)1, and negative for MUC2, MUC5AC, MUC6 and caudal type homeobox 2. The tumor was finally diagnosed as pancreatic ITPN with associated invasive cancer. The patient remains well without evident recurrence nine months post-surgery. ITPN is a rare type of epithelial neoplasm of the pancreas, and is characterized by intraductal tubulo-papillary growth, ductal differentiation, limited intracellular mucin production, and cellular dysplasia. The present case report may contribute to improved understanding of how to effectively treat patients with ITPN.

Abstract
Context.—Intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm (ITPN) is a rare intraductal epithelial neoplasm of the pancreas recently recognized as a distinct entity by the World Health Organization classification in 2010. It is defined as an intraductal, grossly visible, tubule-forming epithelial neoplasm with high-grade dysplasia and ductal differentiation without overt production of mucin. The diagnosis can be challenging owing to morphologic overlap with other intraductal lesions and its rarity. While recent advances in molecular genetic studies of ITPN have provided new tools to facilitate clinical diagnosis, the limited number of cases has yielded limited follow-up data to guide management.
Objective.—To provide a clinical, pathologic, and molecular update on ITPN with respect to clinical presentation, imaging findings, histopathologic features, differential diagnosis, biological behavior, molecular characteristics, and treatment options.
Data Sources.—Analysis of the pertinent literature (PubMed) and authors' research and clinical practice experience based on institutional and consultation materials.
Conclusions.—Clinical presentation, imaging findings, histopathology, immunohistochemistry studies, molecular characteristics, prognosis, and treatment options of ITPN are reviewed. Important differential diagnoses with other intraductal neoplasms of the pancreas—especially intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm—using histopathologic, molecular, and immunohistochemical studies, are discussed. Despite the recent progress, more studies are necessary to assess the biology and genetics of ITPN for a better understanding of the prognostic factors and treatment options.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasms (ITPNs) of the pancreas are rare. The purpose of this study was to collate and analyze published data on ITPNs of the pancreas to determine the clinicopathological features of the tumors and the surgical outcomes of patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS We searched MEDLINE and Igakuchuo-Zasshi for the period of 1980 to 2015 for case reports on surgical resection for ITPN of the pancreas. We evaluated the clinicopathological data associated with pancreatic ITPNs, the prognosis for each patient, and surgical outcomes described in the case reports. RESULTS We obtained clinicopathological data for 58 patients (33 men and 25 women) with a mean age of 61 years (range, 35-84 years) who had undergone surgical resection for ITPN of the pancreas, including one patient from our clinic. Although ITPNs of the pancreas have different clinicopathological features to intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms, the treatment strategy for patients with ITPNs is the same as for patients with other cystic neoplasms of the pancreas. The immunohistochemical features of ITPNs included testing positive for cytokeratin 7 and/or cytokeratin 19 and negative for trypsin, MUC2, MUC5AC, and fascin. The overall 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates after surgery for the 37 cases with available data were 97.3, 80.7, and 80.7 %, respectively. CONCLUSION Surgical treatment is the only curative management option for patients with ITPN of the pancreas. To determine the best management strategy for this tumor and improve accuracy of prognosis for patients, we will continue to collect and analyze epidemiological and pathological data.
