Abstract
We report a case of intraductal papillary neoplasms of the bile duct (IPNB) that metachronously developed twice in the downstream bile duct after radical resection. The first lesion was located in the left intrahepatic bile duct, the second lesion in the perihilar bile duct, and the third lesion in the distal bile duct. All lesions were IPNBs with associated invasive carcinoma (pancreatobiliary type). The depth of invasion was to the Glisson's capsule in the first lesion, to the subserosa in the second lesion, and to the fibromuscular layer in the third lesion, without lympho-vascular/perineural invasion and lymph-node metastasis. These were resected radically and had no biliary intraepithelial neoplasia and hyperplasia in the surrounding mucosa. In immunohistochemical examination, each lesion showed a different pattern. Although the downstream occurrence suggests intrabiliary dissemination, the mechanism of these metachronous developments may be multicentric. A literature review revealed that most metachronous cholangiocarcinomas have a grossly papillary appearance and tend to arise downstream. Our findings suggest that IPNB may develop metachronously in the residual bile duct after radical surgery, which may assist in early detection.

Abstract
Intraductal papillary neoplasm of bile duct (IPNB) was described as a preinvasive neoplastic lesion of the biliary tract in the 2010 World Health Organization (WHO) classification. Although a number of studies have since been conducted on IPNBs, controversy remains, particularly regarding the standardization of its definition. Meetings by Japanese and Korean expert pathologists were held twice to resolve the pathological diagnostic aspects of IPNB. Through round-table discussions and histological reviews, we reached the common understanding that IPNBs diagnosed according to the criteria of WHO 2010 are characterized by intraductal predominant papillary or villous biliary neoplasms covering delicate fibrovascular stalks and are classified into two types pathologically. One type (type 1 IPNB) is histologically similar to intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms of pancreas, and typically develops in the intrahepatic bile ducts, while the other (type 2 IPNB) has a more complex histological architecture with irregular papillary branching or with foci of solid-tubular components and typically involves the extrahepatic bile ducts. This report states the diagnostic pathologic features of IPNB proposed by WHO 2010. Since currently, the concept of IPNB is still confusing, the proposed diagnostic pathologic features stated here will be of use for future clinicopathological and molecular analyses toward consensus building of IPNB.

Abstract
Intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct (IPNB) is a variant of bile duct carcinoma that is characterized by intraductal growth and better outcomes compared with common cholangiocarcinoma. IPNBs are mainly found in patients from Far Eastern areas, where hepatolithiasis and clonorchiasis are endemic. According to the immunohistochemical profiles of the mucin core proteins, IPNBs are classified into four types: pancreaticobiliary, intestinal, gastric, and oncocytic. Approximately 40%-80% of IPNBs contain a component of invasive carcinoma or tubular or mucinous adenocarcinoma, suggesting that IPNB is a disease with high potential for malignancy. It is difficult to make an accurate preoperative diagnosis because of IPNB’s low incidence and the lack of specificity in its clinical manifestation. The most common abnormal preoperative imaging findings of IPNB are intraductal masses and the involvement of bile duct dilation. Simultaneous proximal and distal bile duct dilation can be detected in some cases, which has diagnostic significance. Cholangiography and cholangioscopy are needed to confirm the pathology and demonstrate the extent of the lesions. However, pathologic diagnosis by biopsy cannot reflect the actual stage in many cases because different foci may be of different stages and because mixed pathologic findings may exist in the same lesion. Surgical resection is the major treatment. Systematic cholangioscopy with staged biopsies and frozen sections is recommended during resection to ensure that no minor tumors are left and that curative resection is achieved. Staging, histologic subtype, curative resection and lymph node metastasis are factors affecting long-term survival.
