Abstract
A 73-year-old Japanese man with a history of distal biliary cancer treated by pancreatoduodenectomy developed pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma (PACC) treated by remnant pancreatectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy. Thirteen months after surgery, multiple liver metastases developed and FOLFOX chemotherapy was initiated. Based on the PACC diagnosis and a positive family history for breast and ovarian cancer genetic testing was performed which revealed a pathogenic germline BRCA2 variant (c.8629G > T, p.Glu2877Ter). Olaparib therapy was initiated and the metastases responded well (partial response). PACC is a BRCA2-associated cancer which may respond well to PARP inhibitors.

Abstract
Multiple gastroenteric, pancreatic, and pituitary neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) were diagnosed in a 74-year-old man with a history of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). Germline testing demonstrated a variant of MEN1 (c.1694T>A, p.L565Q), whose pathogenicity was classified as a variant of uncertain significance (VUS) according to the ACMG/AMP guidelines. The same germline variant was detected in the patient's son and daughter, who also showed PHPT or hypercalcemia and met the clinical diagnostic criteria for multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1). During surveillance of the son, multiple pancreatic tumors suggestive of NENs were detected. The pathogenicity of the current MEN1 variant was re-evaluated as likely pathogenic, based on additional family data.

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.

Abstract
Pancreatic solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) is a low-grade malignant neoplasm with a good prognosis. Clinically aggressive SPNs have rarely been reported but have not been analyzed in detail. In this study, we referred to this highly malignant type of SPN as high-grade SPN (HG-SPN) and compared its clinicopathological and genetic characteristics with conventional SPN (C-SPN) using immunohistochemistry and gene panel analyses. Five HG-SPNs and 15 C-SPNs were evaluated in this study. HG-SPNs share many pathologic characteristics: macroscopically, solid/cystic appearances, microscopically, pseudopapillary/pseudorosette pattern (100%), tumor cell loose cohesiveness (100%), thin/delicate vasculature (100%), tumor cell cytoplasmic vacuolization (100%), immunohistochemical positivity for β-catenin (nuclear expression) (100%), CD10 (80%), CD56 (80%), and vimentin (100%). Conversely, HG-SPNs showed distinct malignant features compared with C-SPNs: mean tumor size (11.7 vs. 2.9 cm, P <0.001); true necrosis (100% vs. 0%, P <0.001); high-grade nuclear atypia (100% vs. 0%, P <0.001); lymphatic and/or venous invasion (100% vs. 20%, P =0.004); mean mitotic count (4.38 vs. 0.05/high-power field, P <0.001); and mean Ki-67 labeling index (33.9% vs. 3.4%, P <0.001). All HG-SPN patients died of primary disease 3 to 36 months after surgery, while all C-SPN patients were alive without disease. Genetic studies have shown that all analyzed HG-SPNs have CTNNB1 mutations. Two HG-SPN cases showed RB1 mutations with altered immunohistochemical findings for RB1 and p16. Two HG-SPN cases had TP53 mutation and/or p53 overexpression. In conclusion, HG-SPNs show distinct malignant features and some genetic alterations that differ from C-SPNs, indicating the importance of differentiating between these 2 subtypes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although surgical resection is generally suggested for nonfunctioning pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, observation can be proposed for carefully selected patients with small tumors. However, the indications for observation remain unclear. METHODS This retrospective study included 77 patients with nonfunctioning pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, including small tumors (≤2.0 cm, n = 41), who received pancreatectomy. The ratio of the mean computed tomography value of a tumor in the late arterial/equilibrium phase (computed tomography a/e ratio) was used to evaluate tumor vascularity. Pathologic examinations of small tumors were conducted. The associations among the computed tomography a/e ratio, pathologic findings, and survival outcomes were investigated. RESULTS Small tumors were pathologically categorized by the degree of fibrosis as follows: medullary (n = 20), intermediate (n = 11), and fibrotic (n = 10). The fibrotic type had significantly lower computed tomography a/e ratios than the medullary type (median, 1.42 vs 2.03, P < .001). The median number of vessels with microscopic venous invasion was significantly higher in the fibrotic type than in the medullary type (4.5 vs 0.0, P < .001). The cutoff value of the computed tomography a/e ratio for predicting microscopic venous invasion was determined to be 1.54 by the receiver operating characteristic curve (area under the curve, 0.832; sensitivity, 80.0%; specificity, 83.9%; accuracy, 82.9%). Microscopic venous invasion was an independent prognostic factor for relapse-free survival in overall patients (hazard ratio 5.18, P = .017). CONCLUSION The computed tomography a/e ratio may be a useful predictor of the metastatic potential of nonfunctioning pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors and may help decide the indications of observation for small nonfunctioning pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.

Abstract
Objective Clinical practice guidelines in Japan recommend surgery for all nonfunctioning pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NF-PNETs), regardless of their size or associated symptoms. Because pancreatic resection is highly invasive, follow-up for small NF-PNETs is often chosen in clinical practice. However, the natural history of NF-PNET remains poorly understood. We aimed to examine the natural history of pathologically confirmed NF-PNET. Methods This single-center retrospective case series investigated NF-PNETs that were pathologically diagnosed using endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) at our hospital between 2014 and 2018. Patients who were followed up without treatment due to their general condition or their wish were included in the study. Patients' background characteristics, imaging findings, pathological findings, and long-term prognoses were investigated using medical records. Results Overall, 26 patients were diagnosed with NF-PNET by EUS-FNA during the observation period. Of these, 9 patients (3 men and 6 women; median age: 64 years old) were followed up without treatment. All of these patients were asymptomatic, and localization was noticed in 3 cases in the head, body, and tail (1 each), with a median size of 12 (range: 4-18) mm. Neuroendocrine tumor (Grade 1 [G1]) was pathologically diagnosed in all patients with EUS-FNA. The median observation period was 63 (range: 26-90) months. Tumor growth and distant metastasis were not observed in any of the nine patients who remained asymptomatic. Conclusion Follow-up is a feasible option for asymptomatic NF-PNET ≤20 mm in size with a pathological grade of G1.

Abstract
A 50-year-old man presented to the emergency department with left chest pain, epigastralgia, and low-grade fever for several days. A CT scan showed left pleural effusion, ground-glass opacities in the lower lobes of both lungs, and a capsule-like rim in the pancreas. ERCP showed narrowing of the main pancreatic duct. EUS-FNA was performed, but pathological findings showed no IgG4-positive cells. A thoracoscopic biopsy was performed, and pathological findings showed many IgG4-positive cells. A diagnosis of autoimmune pancreatitis and IgG4-associated pleurisy was made according to international diagnostic criteria. After that, oral steroid therapy was started, and left pleural effusion and pancreatic enlargement improved.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Small intestine carcinoma (SIC) cases in Japan have recently been treated with chemotherapy according to colorectal carcinoma classification, while papilla of Vater carcinoma (PVC) cases according to cholangiocarcinoma (CHC) classification. However, few research reports support the molecular genetic validity of these therapeutic choices. PATIENTS AND METHODS Here, we investigated the clinicopathological and molecular genetic factors of SIC and PVC. We used the data from the Japanese version of The Cancer Genome Atlas. Additionally, molecular genetic data on gastric adenocarcinoma (GAD), colorectal adenocarcinoma (CRAD), pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), and CHC were also referred to. RESULTS This study consisted of tumor samples from 12 patients of SIC and three patients of PVC treated from January 2014 to March 2019. Among them, six patients had pancreatic invasion. t-Distributed stochastic neighbor embedding analysis showed that the gene expression pattern of SIC was similar not only to those of GAD and CRAD, but also to that of PDAC in the pancreatic invasion patients. In addition, PVC resembled the GAD, CRAD, and PDAC, rather than the CHC. The molecular genetic characteristics of the six patients with pancreatic invasion were: one had high microsatellite instability, two had a TP53 driver mutation, and three had tumor mutation burden values <1 mutation/Mb with no driver mutation. CONCLUSIONS In this study, the extensive gene expression profiling of organ carcinomas newly suggests that SIC or PVC may resemble GAD, CRAD, and PDAC. In addition, the data demonstrate that pancreatic invasive patients may be classified into several subtypes using molecular genetic factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to establish a reliable and reproducible categorized diagnostic classification system with identification of key features to achieve accurate pathological diagnosis of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration biopsy (EUS-FNAB) samples of pancreatic lesions. METHODS Twelve pathologists examined virtual whole-slide images of EUS-FNAB samples obtained from 80 patients according to proposed diagnostic categories and key features for diagnosis. Fleiss κ was used to assess the concordance. RESULTS A hierarchical diagnostic system consisting of the following 6 diagnostic categories was proposed: inadequate, nonneoplasm, indeterminate, ductal carcinoma, nonductal neoplasm, and unclassified neoplasm. Adopting these categories, the average κ value of participants was 0.677 (substantial agreement). Among these categories, ductal carcinoma and nonductal neoplasm showed high κ values of 0.866 and 0.837, respectively, which indicated the almost perfect agreement. Key features identified for diagnosing ductal carcinoma were necrosis in low-power appearance; structural atypia/abnormalities recognized by irregular glandular contours, including cribriform and nonuniform shapes; cellular atypia, including enlarged nuclei, irregular nuclear contours, and foamy gland changes; and haphazard glandular arrangement and stromal desmoplasia. CONCLUSIONS The proposed hierarchical diagnostic classification system was proved to be useful for achieving reliable and reproducible diagnosis of EUS-FNAB specimens of pancreatic lesions based on evaluated histological features.

Abstract
AIM Hamartomas in the pancreas are rare and are often histologically and morphologically similar to solitary fibrous tumours (SFTs). We examined the differences between hamartomas and SFTs at the molecular level. METHODS AND RESULTS Thirteen patients histopathologically diagnosed with pancreatic hamartoma were included in the study. We also performed STAT6 immunohistochemistry (IHC), which is used in the diagnosis of SFT. Furthermore, for the three cases in which RNA was extracted, reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction to search for NAB2-STAT6 fusions was used. Macroscopically, 13 patients had well-demarcated tumour lesions. Histologically, no islets of Langerhans were observed in the lesions, acinar tissue and ducts were unevenly distributed, and elastic fibres were not observed around the ducts by Elastica Van Gieson staining. One case contained a lipomatous hamartoma composed mainly of adipose tissue. Seven of the 13 cases demonstrated expression of STAT6 in the nuclei of intervening spindle cells. NAB2-STAT6 fusions were observed in two of the three cases in which RNA was extracted. These two cases also demonstrated STAT6 expression in spindle cells using STAT6 IHC. In one case of lipomatous hamartoma, we did not confirm NAB2-STAT6 fusion or STAT6 expression in STAT6 IHC. CONCLUSION Of the 13 patients histopathologically diagnosed with hamartoma, two demonstrated NAB2-STAT6 fusions, suggesting the existence of pancreatic hamartomas with molecular-level components identical to those of SFT.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to propose prognostic factors and optimal treatment strategies by analyzing the clinicopathological features and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression. We analyzed 31 patients diagnosed with uterine or ovarian melanoma between 1997 and 2017 in the Kansai Clinical Oncology Group/Intergroup. Twenty-four and seven patients with cervical and ovarian melanomas were included, respectively. Immune checkpoint inhibitors were used in seven patients, and the objective response rate was 40%. Notably, two patients with objective responses had a high PD-L1 expression. Ten and four patients with cervical and ovarian melanomas, respectively, had high PD-L1 immunohistochemical expressions. Multivariate analysis revealed that tumor stage was an independent prognostic factor for progression-free survival in patients with cervical melanomas. In patients with ovarian melanomas, the 1-year cumulative progression-free and overall survival rates were 0 and 29%, respectively. Kaplan-Meier analyses revealed that age <60 years was associated with poorer progression-free and overall survivals in patients with ovarian melanomas. In patients with cervical melanomas, the 1-, 3-, and 5-year cumulative overall survival rates were 53, 32, and 16%, respectively. Histological atypia was associated with a poorer progression-free survival, but there was no difference in survival between patients who underwent radical hysterectomy and those who did not. The present study is a large cohort study of uterine and ovarian melanomas, which are aggressive tumors with a significantly poor prognosis, even after standard surgery and adjuvant therapy. The use of immune checkpoint inhibitors is a promising and effective treatment option.

Abstract
The histological diagnosis of type 1 autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) based on the findings obtained by an endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) is feasible, but the diagnostic consistency of this method has not been confirmed. We determined the interobserver agreement among 20 pathologists regarding the diagnosis of type 1 AIP, including the distinction from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) using large tissue samples obtained by EUS-FNB. After guidance for diagnosing AIP with biopsy tissues was provided, a round 2 was performed. The median sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing PDAC vs. non-neoplastic diseases were 95.2% and 100%, respectively. In groups of specialists (n = 7) and the generalists (n = 13), Fleiss' к-values increased from 0.886 to 0.958 and from 0.750 to 0.816 in round 2. The concordance was fair or moderate for obliterative phlebitis and storiform fibrosis but slight for ductal lesion of type 1 AIP. Discordant results were due to ambiguous findings and biopsy tissue limitations. Among the specialists, the ratio of cases with perfect agreement regarding the presence of storiform fibrosis increased in round 2, but agreement regarding obliterative phlebitis or ductal lesions was not improved. Although the histological definite diagnosis of type 1 AIP was achieved by most observers in > 60% of the cases, the confidence levels varied. Because some ambiguities exist, the histological diagnostic levels based on the diagnostic criteria of type 1 AIP should not be taken for granted. Guidance is effective for improving accurate PDAC diagnoses (notably by recognizing acinar-ductal metaplasia) and for evaluating storiform fibrosis.

Abstract
Introduction Fibroma of the tendon sheath (FTS) is a soft-tissue tumor strongly attaches to the tendon sheath. The most common tumor which causes bone erosion is giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath while the erosion is quite rarely caused by FTS. Case Report A 50-year-old housewife presented a swelling around the A1 pulley of the right third finger as well as bone erosion and a trigger finger. Against our preoperative suspect as GTTS, the pathological findings showed FTS. The snapping disappeared after the surgery. At 2.5 years postoperatively, we found no recurrence. Conclusion FTS can be added to one of the differential diagnoses for tumor presenting bone erosion in fingers though our case is rare.

Abstract
Low-grade neuroendocrine carcinoma of the skin (LGNECS) was proposed in 2017 as a new primary cutaneous neoplasm with neuroendocrine differentiation; however, it is not yet well known due to its rarity. Herein, we perform a detailed clinicopathologic analysis of 13 cases as well as panel DNA sequencing in three cases. The study included 12 males and 1 female with a median age of 71 (43-85) years. All lesions occurred on the ventral trunk. The mean tumor size was 2.2 (0.8-11.0) cm. The histopathology resembled that of well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) in other organs, but intraepidermal pagetoid spreading was seen in 8 (61.5%) cases and stromal mucin deposits in 4 (30.8%). Immunoreactivity for CK7, CK19, EMA, BerEP4, CEA, chromogranin A, synaptophysin, INSM1, GCDFP15, GATA3, ER, and bcl-2 were present in varying degrees in all tested cases. PTEN c.165-1G>A splice site mutation was detected by panel sequencing in one case, and GATA3 P409fs*99 and SETD2 R1708fs*4 in another case. Lymph node metastasis was seen significantly in cases with tumor size >2.0 cm [8/8 (100%) vs. 1/5 (20%)]. All three cases with size >3.0 cm were in unresectable advanced-stage [3/3 (100%) vs. 1/10 (10%)], and two of the three patients succumbed to the disease. The two cases of death revealed mild nuclear atypia (mitosis: 1/10 HPFs) and moderate nuclear atypia (2/10 HPFs). Thus, tumor size would be a better prognostic factor than nuclear atypia, mitotic count, and Ki67 index, unlike in NETs. These clinicopathologic and immunohistochemical features would represent the characteristics as skin adnexal tumors with apocrine/eccrine differentiation rather than NETs; therefore, we rename it as sweat-gland carcinoma with neuroendocrine differentiation (SCAND).

Abstract
Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) are rare neoplasms that occur in various organs and present with diverse clinical manifestations. Pathological classification is important in the diagnosis of NENs. Treatment strategies must be selected according to the status of differentiation and malignancy by accurately determining whether the neoplasm is functioning or nonfunctioning, degree of disease progression, and presence of metastasis. The newly revised Clinical Practice Guidelines for Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms (GEP-NENs) comprises 5 chapters-diagnosis, pathology, surgical treatment, medical and multidisciplinary treatment, and multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1)/von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease-and includes 51 clinical questions and 19 columns. These guidelines aim to provide direction and practical clinical content for the management of GEP-NEN preferentially based on clinically useful reports. These revised guidelines also refer to the new concept of "neuroendocrine tumor" (NET) grade 3, which is based on the 2017 and 2019 WHO criteria; this includes health insurance coverage of somatostatin receptor scintigraphy for NEN, everolimus for lung and gastrointestinal NET, and lanreotide for GEP-NET. The guidelines also newly refer to the diagnosis, treatment, and surveillance of NEN associated with VHL disease and MEN1. The accuracy of these guidelines has been improved by examining and adopting new evidence obtained after the first edition was published.

Abstract
Determination of the primary tumor in periampullary region carcinomas can be difficult, and the pathological assessment and clinicopathological characteristics remain elusive. In this study, we investigated the current recognition and practices for periampullary region adenocarcinoma with an indeterminable origin among expert pathologists through a cognitive survey. Simultaneously, we analyzed a prospective collection of cases with an indeterminable primary tumor diagnosed from 2008 to 2018 to elucidate their clinicopathological features. All cases with pathological indeterminable primary tumors were reported and discussed in a clinicopathological conference to elucidate if it was possible to distinguish the primary tumor clinically and pathologically. From the cognitive survey, over 85% of the pathologists had experienced cases with indeterminable primary tumors; however, 70% of the cases was reported as pancreatic cancer without definitive grounds. Interpretation of the main tumor mass varied, and no standardized method was developed to determine the primary tumor. During a prospective study, 42 of the 392 periampullary carcinoma cases (10.7%) were considered as tumors with a pathological indeterminable origin. After the clinicopathological conferences, 21 (5.4%) remained indeterminable and were considered final indeterminable cases. Histological studies showed that the tumors spread along both the bile duct and main pancreatic duct; this was the most representative finding of the final indeterminable cases. This study is the first to elucidate and recognize the current clinicopathological features of periampullary region adenocarcinomas with an indeterminable origin. Adequate assessment of primary tumors in periampullary region carcinomas will help to optimize epidemiological data of pancreatic and bile duct cancer.

Abstract
Histopathological diagnosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) on endoscopic ultrasonography-guided fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) specimens has become the mainstay of preoperative pathological diagnosis. However, on EUS-FNB specimens, accurate histopathological evaluation is difficult due to low specimen volume with isolated cancer cells and high contamination of blood, inflammatory and digestive tract cells. In this study, we performed annotations for training sets by expert pancreatic pathologists and trained a deep learning model to assess PDAC on EUS-FNB of the pancreas in histopathological whole-slide images. We obtained a high receiver operator curve area under the curve of 0.984, accuracy of 0.9417, sensitivity of 0.9302 and specificity of 0.9706. Our model was able to accurately detect difficult cases of isolated and low volume cancer cells. If adopted as a supportive system in routine diagnosis of pancreatic EUS-FNB specimens, our model has the potential to aid pathologists diagnose difficult cases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Soft pancreatic texture is a risk factor for postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF). However, conventional evaluation of pancreatic texture is largely dependent on subjective assessment and lacks quantitative parameters. The study aimed to use ultrasonic shear wave elastography (SWE) to evaluate pancreatic stiffness to determine if the intraoperative SWE measurement could be a quantitative predictor for POPF. PATIENTS AND METHODS Fifteen patients scheduled for pancreaticoduodenectomy were included. Both pre- and intra-operative measurement of the pancreatic SWE index (SWEI) were evaluated. Relationships between intraoperative and preoperative SWEI, pathological fibrosis of the resected pancreatic specimen, postoperative exocrine function of the remnant pancreas, and the incidence of POPF were evaluated. RESULTS The intraoperative SWEI was correlated with the preoperative SWEI, pathological fibrosis of pancreatic tissue, and pancreatic exocrine function. CONCLUSION Intraoperative SWE measurement of pancreatic elasticity may be useful as a quantitative method for evaluating pancreatic fibrosis and exocrine function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastric gastrinoma and spontaneous tumor regression are both very rarely encountered. We report the first case of spontaneous regression of gastric gastrinoma. CASE SUMMARY A 37-year-old man with a 9-year history of chronic abdominal pain was referred for evaluation of an 8 cm mass in the lesser omentum discovered incidentally on abdominal computed tomography. The tumor was diagnosed as grade 2 neuroendocrine neoplasm (NEN) on endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration. Screening esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed a 7 mm red polypoid lesion with central depression in the gastric antrum, also confirmed to be a grade 2 NEN. Laparoscopic removal of the abdominal mass confirmed it to be a metastatic gastrinoma lesion. The gastric lesion was subsequently diagnosed as primary gastric gastrinoma. Three months later, the gastric lesion had disappeared without treatment. The patient remains symptom-free with normal fasting serum gastrin and no recurrence of gastrinoma during 36 mo of follow-up. CONCLUSION Gastric gastrinoma may arise as a polypoid lesion in the gastric antrum. Spontaneous regression can rarely occur after biopsy.

Abstract
A 79-year-old man presented with malaise and jaundice at a local hospital. His blood tests showed severe inflammation, liver failure, and high expression of several tumour markers. Radiological findings revealed dilated common and intrahepatic bile ducts and a lower bile duct constricted by a soft tissue mass. Histological findings by endoscopy showed a suspected adenocarcinoma, which was determined as class IV by cytology. The patient was referred to our hospital for surgical treatment. He underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy and the final diagnosis was so-called carcinosarcoma of the bile duct. He had liver metastasis and died at 26 postoperative months.

Abstract
Objective Both a percutaneous biopsy and endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) have been widely performed for liver tumors. However, no studies have compared these two biopsy methods. Method A retrospective study was conducted using medical records for patients who underwent a liver tumor biopsy from 2012 to 2019. The cases were classified into two groups for a comparison: an ultrasound-guided percutaneous biopsy group (percutaneous group) and an EUS-FNA group (EUS group). Results A total of 106 patients (47 in the percutaneous group and 59 in the EUS group) were included. The final diagnosis was malignant in 100 cases and benign in the remaining 6 cases. While the median lesion diameter was 62 mm in the percutaneous group, it was significantly smaller (34 mm) in the EUS group (p <0.01). The EUS group had more left lobe tumors than right lobe tumors. All cases of caudate lobe tumor (four cases) underwent EUS-FNA. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of the procedure were 95%, 100%, and 96% in the percutaneous group and 100%, 100%, and 100% in the EUS group, respectively showing no significant difference. Adverse events were reported in 17% of the percutaneous group, which was significantly lower than in the EUS group (2%; p <0.01). Conclusion A percutaneous biopsy and EUS-FNA have equivalent diagnostic qualities for liver tumors, although EUS-FNA tends to be associated with fewer adverse events. A complete understanding of the characteristics of each procedure is essential when choosing the best biopsy method for each particular case.

Abstract
Background and study aims The diagnosis of malignant lymphoma (ML) is sometimes difficult, especially in patients with primary splenic malignant lymphomas (psML) which have no lymph nodes capable of acting as the biopsy target. We carried out endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) for "splenic parenchyma" in patients suspected of having a psML, even without any obvious neoplastic lesions in the spleen. Patients and methods A retrospective study using medical records was conducted of eight patients suspected of having a psML that received EUS-FNA for the splenic parenchyma between January 2016 and January 2019. Data analyzed included clinical background, EUS-FNA procedure (puncture needle/route), diagnostic ability (pathological/flow cytometry [FCM]), and complications. Results EUS-FNA was performed from the stomach in all eight cases, and no patients had complications. As a result of splenic parenchymal biopsy found on EUS-FNA, 75 % of patients (6/8) were histologically diagnosed with MLs, monoclonality of B-cells was identified in all cases (8/8) with FCM, and all patients (8/8) were definitively diagnosed with psMLs. Conclusion EUS-FNA for "splenic parenchyma" is useful for patients with spML, even if they have no obvious neoplastic lesions in the spleen.

Abstract
Pancreatic cancer is associated with an exceedingly poor prognosis, warranting the development of novel therapeutic strategies and discovery of prognostic predictors. Given that chemoresistance‑related molecules are reportedly associated with the poor prognosis of pancreatic cancer, the present study aimed to identify molecules that could be efficacious therapeutic targets for pancreatic cancer. First, 10 patient‑derived xenografts (PDXs) were established from patients with pancreatic cancer. Subsequently, after treating tumor tissue generated from the PDXs with standard drugs, next‑generation sequencing (NGS) was performed using these tissues. The results of NGS analysis and immunohistochemical analysis on 80 pancreatic cancer tissues revealed that human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) expression in the anticancer drug‑treated PDX group was higher than that in the untreated PDXs. In addition, chemoresistance ability was observed in tumor cell lines overexpressing HE4. Furthermore, Kaplan‑Meier analysis of tumor tissues from 80 patients with pancreatic cancer was performed and it was found that patients with a high HE4 expression level had a poor survival rate compared with those who had a low HE4 expression level. Multivariate analysis also indicated the high expression level of HE4 was an independent poor prognostic biomarker. Thus, it was concluded that high gene and protein expression levels of HE4 mediate chemoresistance and are independent prognostic factors for pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) are classified into main duct (MD)-type IPMNs, branch duct (BD)-type IPMNs, and mixed type IPMNs. While MD-type IPMN has a high risk of malignancy and should therefore be considered for resection if the patient is fit, BD-type IPMN needs to be carefully judged for surgical indication. The decision to resect BD-type IPMN is often based on international consensus Fukuoka guidelines 2017, but further investigation is required. In this study, we focused on whether the location of the mural nodule (MN) could be an indicator of malignancy. METHODS We enrolled 17 cases who had been diagnosed BD-type IPMNs which were surgically resected from January 2016 to December 2019. These cases were classified into benign and malignant group. Subsequently, a clinicopathological study was conducted based on the localization of MN (MN-central type or MN-peripheral type). RESULTS Although MN was found in 57% (4/11) in the benign group, 88% (7/8) was noted in the malignant group, indicating the presence of MN to be more common in the malignant group. Those with MN consisted of 6 cases of MN-central type and 5 cases of MN-peripheral type. All cases of central type were malignant compared to only one case of the peripheral group being confirmed on histology as cancer. CONCLUSION BD-IPMN with central mural nodule should be considered high risk for malignancy.

Abstract
The biopsy-based diagnosis of autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is difficult but is becoming imperative for pathologists due to the increased amount of endoscopic ultrasound-guided biopsy tissue. To cope with this challenge, we propose guidance for the biopsy diagnosis of type 1 AIP. This guidance is for pathologists and comprises three main parts. The first part includes basic issues on tissue acquisition, staining, and final diagnosis, and is intended for gastroenterologists as well. The second part is a practical guide for diagnosing type 1 AIP based on the AIP clinical diagnostic criteria 2018. Inconsistent histological findings, tips for evaluating IgG4 immunostaining and key histological features including the ductal lesion and others are explained. Storiform fibrosis and obliterative phlebitis are diagnostic hallmarks but are sometimes equivocal. Storiform fibrosis is defined as spindle-shaped cells, inflammatory cells and fine collagen fibers forming a flowing arrangement. Obliterative phlebitis is defined as fibrous venous obliteration with inflammatory cells. Examples of each are provided. The third part describes the differentiation of AIP from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), focusing on histological features of acinar-ductal metaplasia in AIP, which is an important mimicker of PDAC. This guidance will help standardize pathology reports of pancreatic biopsies for diagnosing type 1 AIP.

Abstract
Mixed acinar-neuroendocrine carcinoma (MAEC) of the pancreas is a rare entity, and obtaining a preoperative diagnosis is difficult. We report a case of pancreatic MAEC successfully diagnosed with EUS-FNA. The case was a 72-year-old male with upper abdominal pain. Abdominal CT showed an irregular, hypovascular tumor of pancreatic tail. EUS-FNA was performed using a 22G needle. Immunostaining revealed positive results for the acinar marker trypsin and the neuroendocrine markers chromogranin A and synaptophysin. The possibility for MAEC was considered. He underwent distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy. Immunohistochemical examination of the tumor cells showed a wide range of positivity for bcl-10 and trypsin as well as for chromogranin A and synaptophysin, but negative results for CA19-9 and AFP. Considering that ≥ 30% tumors were positive for both acinar and neuroendocrine markers, the patient was diagnosed with MAEC.

Abstract
Pancreatic cancer has extremely poor prognosis, warranting the discovery of novel therapeutic and prognostic markers. The expression of polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR), a key component of the mucosal immune system, is increased in several cancers. However, its clinical relevance in pancreatic cancer remains unclear. In the present study, the prognostic value of pIgR in pancreatic cancer patients after surgical resection was assessed and it was determined that the expression of pIgR was correlated with poor prognosis. Ten pancreatic cancer patient‑derived xenograft (PDX) lines were established, followed by next‑generation sequencing of tumor tissues from these lines after standard chemotherapy. Immunohistochemical analysis of chemoresistance‑related molecules using 77 pancreatic cancer tissues was also performed. The expression of pIgR mRNA in the PDX group treated with anticancer drugs was higher than in the untreated group. High pIgR expression in tissue specimens from 77 pancreatic cancer patients was significantly associated with poor prognosis and was revealed to be an independent prognostic factor, predicting poor outcomes. High pIgR mRNA and protein levels were independent prognostic factors, indicating that pIgR could be a novel predictor for poor prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients.

Abstract
Pancreatic schwannoma is difficult to diagnose preoperatively. A 79-year-old man was found to have a 9-mm pancreatic mass on abdominal ultrasonography. On EUS, there was a 9-mm, clearly demarcated, round, solid, hypo-echoic mass in the pancreatic body. The differential diagnosis included a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, a solid-pseudopapillary neoplasm, and an atypical pancreatic cancer. EUS-FNA was performed with a 22G needle. On pathology examination, spindle-shaped tumor cells were seen proliferating in bundles. On immunostaining, the lesion was negative for c-kit, CD34, and α-SMA but positive for S-100 protein. The MIB-1 index was < 2%. Based on the above findings, the lesion was diagnosed as a benign pancreatic schwannoma. We, therefore, decided to follow the patient with careful observation rather than resecting the lesion surgically. The tumor has not changed significantly after 3 years of follow-up. EUS-FNA is useful for the diagnosis of pancreatic schwannoma. If the tumor can be determined to be benign preoperatively, unnecessary surgery can be avoided. EUS-FNA should be actively implemented for pancreatic tumors that are difficult to diagnose definitively on imaging.

Abstract
Pancreatic cancer has an extremely poor prognosis, and identification of novel predictors of therapeutic efficacy and prognosis is urgently needed. Chemoresistance-related molecules are correlated with poor prognosis and may be effective targets for cancer treatment. Here, we aimed to identify novel molecules correlated with chemoresistance and poor prognosis in pancreatic cancer. We established 10 patient-derived xenograft (PDX) lines from patients with pancreatic cancer and performed next-generation sequencing (NGS) of tumor tissues from PDXs after treatment with standard drugs. We established a gene-transferred tumor cell line to express chemoresistance-related molecules and analyzed the chemoresistance of the established cell line against standard drugs. Finally, we performed immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis of chemoresistance-related molecules using 80 pancreatic cancer tissues. From NGS analysis, we identified olfactomedin-4 (OLFM4) as having high expression in the PDX group treated with anticancer drugs. In IHC analysis, OLFM4 expression was also high in PDXs administered anticancer drugs compared with that in untreated PDXs. Chemoresistance was observed by in vitro analysis of tumor cell lines with forced expression of OLFM4. In an assessment of tissue specimens from 80 patients with pancreatic cancer, Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that patients in the low OLFM4 expression group had a better survival rate than patients in the high OLFM4 expression group. Additionally, multivariate analysis showed that high expression of OLFM4 was an independent prognostic factor predicting poor outcomes. Overall, our study revealed that high expression of OLFM4 was involved in chemoresistance and was an independent prognostic factor in pancreatic cancer. OLFM4 may be a candidate therapeutic target in pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
A 38-year-old woman who consulted a local doctor with chief complaints of sudden palpitations, headaches, and chest pain is herein presented. After admission, pheochromocytoma crisis was suspected. Since the patient had a history of acute heart failure and had once survived an episode of cardiac arrest, a rapid decrease in the catecholamine levels was needed. After resuscitation, pharmacological therapy with agents such as phentolamine and landiolol was administered, and continuous hemodiafiltration (CHDF) was performed to reduce the catecholamine levels. Elective surgery was then performed, and a positive outcome was achieved. This case suggests that the preoperative use of CHDF to control pheochromocytoma crisis may therefore be effective.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Pancreatic cancer has an extremely poor prognosis and novel therapeutic strategies are desperately needed. It is considered that suitable molecules as therapeutic targets are resistant to chemotherapy and correlate with poor prognosis. In this experiment, we aimed to identify the optimal therapeutic targets in pancreatic cancer.
Materials and Methods: We established 10 lines of patient derived xenografts (PDXs) for pancreatic cancer. Next generation sequencer (NGS) analysis was performed for PDXs which were administered chemotherapy and untreated PDXs as a control. Furthermore, we performed immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis for the protein expression of identified molecules from PDXs and post-operative pathologic specimens from 80 patients with pancreatic cancer. When chemotherapy was added on tumor cell lines forcibly expressing the molecule, antitumor effect was compared with the control.
Results: As a result of NGS analysis, we identified Olfactomedin-4 (OLFM4) molecule which was commonly shown high expression in chemotherapy administered PDXs. In IHC analysis, OLFM4 molecule expression was shown high expression with chemotherapy administered PDXs compared to untreated PDXs. For the analysis to use tumor cell lines forcedly expressing OLFM4 in vitro, the reduction rate of the tumor cell numbers was significantly lower than control vector, even if the concentration of the chemotherapy agent was increased. In a study using tissue specimens of 80 pancreatic cancer patients, Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that low expression of OLFM4 had a better survival rate than patients with high expression (p=0.0926, log-rank test). In multivariate analysis, it was shown that the high expression of OLFM4 was an independent poor prognostic factor with a statistically significant difference (p=0.044, Cox proportional hazards).
Conclusions: It was demonstrated that high expression of OLFM4 was involved in chemoresistance and was an independent prognostic factor for pancreatic cancer. This molecule might be a candidate of therapeutic target in pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
Anaplastic pancreatic carcinoma is a rare form of pancreatic cancer with an extremely poor prognosis. Its diagnosis is often based on surgical specimens and few reports have described the use of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) for diagnosis. In this study, we examined six patients (mean age, 70.5 years;sex ratio, 1:1) who were diagnosed with anaplastic pancreatic carcinoma using EUS-FNA. The carcinomas were located in the pancreatic head, body, and tail in one, three, and two patients, respectively. The mean tumor diameter was 49.2mm. Five patients opted for best supportive care due to poor performance status and one underwent chemotherapy (GEM+nab-PTX). The median survival was 40.5 (14-98) days. The characteristic imaging findings of anaplastic pancreatic carcinoma, including central necrosis, marginal contrast enhancement, cystic findings, and internal calcification, were frequently observed in the patients. Anaplastic pancreatic carcinoma can also be diagnosed using biopsy tissue;however, a pathologist's consultation is required to differentiate the disease based on imaging findings for an accurate diagnosis.

Abstract
Desmoid is a locally aggressive fibroblastic neoplasm, typically showing a heterogeneous solid mass, and its pathogenesis is multifactorial, including surgical scars. We herein report a rare case of an intra-abdominal desmoid, consisting of solid and cystic components covered with epithelial linings, that emerged after distal gastrectomy. The preoperative diagnosis was inconclusive, so laparotomy was performed. Histopathology of the solid component showed proliferating spindle cells, which were positive for beta-catenin in their nuclei. Clinicians need to bear in mind that desmoids can appear in a solid-cystic form, and immunostaining of beta-catenin should be applied for tumors that emerge around postoperative wounds.

Abstract
Solid pseudopapillary neoplasms (SPN) of the pancreas are rare, low‐grade malignant neoplasms that metastasise to the liver or peritoneum in 10–15% of cases. They almost invariably present somatic activating mutations of CTNNB1. No comprehensive molecular characterisation of metastatic disease has been conducted to date. We performed whole‐exome sequencing and copy‐number variation (CNV) analysis of 10 primary SPN and comparative sequencing of five matched primary/metastatic tumour specimens by high‐coverage targeted sequencing of 409 genes. In addition to CTNNB1‐activating mutations, we found inactivating mutations of epigenetic regulators (KDM6A, TET1, BAP1) associated with metastatic disease. Most of these alterations were shared between primary and metastatic lesions, suggesting that they occurred before dissemination. Differently from mutations, the majority of CNVs were not shared among lesions from the same patients and affected genes involved in metabolic and pro‐proliferative pathways. Immunostaining of 27 SPNs showed that loss or reduction of KDM6A and BAP1 expression was significantly enriched in metastatic SPNs. Consistent with an increased transcriptional response to hypoxia in pancreatic adenocarcinomas bearing KDM6A inactivation, we showed that mutation or reduced KDM6A expression in SPNs is associated with increased expression of the HIF1α‐regulated protein GLUT1 at both primary and metastatic sites. Our results suggest that BAP1 and KDM6A function is a barrier to the development of metastasis in a subset of SPNs, which might open novel avenues for the treatment of this disease. © 2018 The Authors.

Abstract
Intracystic papillary neoplasm (ICPN) of gallbladder is a comparatively new concept and is described as pre-malignant lesions in Nakanuma et al. (In: Bosman et al. (eds) WHO Classification of Tumours of the Digestive System, World Health Organization of Tumours, IARC, Lyon, 2010). ICPN with high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia is understood to include intraepithelial carcinoma or noninvasive carcinoma. And lesions with invasive cancer components are classified as ICPN with an associated invasive carcinoma [1]. According to Adsay et al., more than half of patients diagnosed with ICPN have invasive cancer components (Adsay et al., Am J Surg Pathol 36:1279-1301, 2012).Polypoid masses in the gallbladder including benign, malignant, and non-neoplastic lesions have been called gallbladder polyps, and ICPN is also a polypoid lesion in the gallbladder. However, it is difficult to differentiate between them. In the literature, it is said that the possibility of malignancy is high in lesions exceeding 1 cm (Terzi et al., Surgery 127:622-627, 2000). And there are few reports on characteristic imaging findings of ICPN.We have experienced three cases (two females and one male) of ICPN and report our imaging findings. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed large papillary polypoid lesions approximately 2-4 cm in size in the gallbladder. Findings suggestive of deformation of the gallbladder wall and extrinsic progression were absent in all cases. T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging revealed intense signals and diffusion-weighted imaging showed high intensity. Expanding of the gallbladder was seen in case 1, and a tumor stalk-like appearance was seen in the papillary mass in cases 2 and 3. Surgery was performed in all three cases and ICPN was diagnosed pathologically. The cancer was localized to the mucosa, with no infiltration of surrounding tissue in all three cases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatic and hepatic mucinous cyst neoplasms (MCNs) have a malignant potential, but indolent MCNs are not uncommon. MATERIALS AND METHODS The pathological and genetic characteristics of resected MCNs (n=15) categorized by the amount of mucin of the lining epithelium were investigated. RESULTS MCNs were divided into two groups: (i) a rich (r)-MCN group (n=6), in which more than half of the epithelium was lined by abundant mucinous epithelium; and (ii) a poor (p)-MCN group (n=9), which consisted of the remaining cases. Three patients in the r-MCN group showed invasive carcinoma or high-grade dysplasia, whereas all patients in the p-MCN group showed low-grade dysplasia. Mutations of Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) were more frequent in the r-MCN group (83%) (p-MCN; 11%, p<0.05). CONCLUSION Mucinous MCNs more frequently have KRAS mutations and higher risk of malignant progression.

Abstract
The WHO 2010 classification divides gastrointestinal neuroendocrine neoplasms (GI-NENs) into neuroendocrine tumor (NET) G1, NET G2, neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) and mixed adenoendocrine carcinoma (MANEC) groups. A total of 136 cases of GI-NENs diagnosed at our hospitals as gastrointestinal carcinoids, endocrine cell carcinomas and NENs over the last 11 years, using the WHO 2010 classification were assessed. Among the 136 cases, 88.2% (120/136) were classified into the NET group (NET G1/G2) and 11.8% (16/136) were classified into the NEC group (NEC/MANEC). The incidences of lymphatic and venous invasions were higher in the NEC group compared with in the NET group (P<0.0001 and P=0.0021, respectively). The immunohistochemical staining of cluster of differentiation 73 (CD73) was evaluated in GI-NENs. CD73 is a potentially useful molecule in tumor immunity. In general, CD73 on the tumor cell membrane converts adenosine monophosphate to adenosine, which restrains the production of interferon-γ and cytocidal activity. Although the association between stem cells of pancreatic NENs and CD73 has been reported, few studies have reported on CD73 expression in GI-NENs. Immunohistochemical CD73 expression on the cytomembrane of neuroendocrine cells was detected in 27.2% (37/136) of the GI-NENs. The positive ratio of CD73 was significantly higher in the NEC group compared with in the NET group (P=0.0015). CD73 is also considered as a potential biomarker of anti-programmed death-1 (PD-1) therapy. The expression of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) on the cytomembrane of GI-NENs was assessed. The positive ratio of PD-L1 was higher in the NEC group compared with in the NET group (P=0.0011). Furthermore, CD73 expression status was significantly correlated with PD-L1 expression (P<0.0001). These results indicate that CD73 may be an interesting candidate for a biomarker for certain prognostic factors and therapeutics concerning PD-1 therapy.

Abstract
The patient was a 54-year-old male who had been suffering from extensive ulcerative colitis (UC) for 17 years. Colonoscopy revealed an elevated lesion in the affected rectum, and its biopsy demonstrated neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC). The surgical specimen obtained on laparoscopic high anterior resection showed extensive active inflammatory and dysplastic lesions and three grossly visible multifocal malignant lesions: a polypoid fungating tumor of NEC (type 1, 20 mm in diameter, pT3) that had been preoperatively noticed, a polypoid fungating tumor of adenocarcinoma (type 1, 22 mm, pT2) and a protruded sessile polypoid tumor (0-Is, 5 mm, pTis) of adenocarcinoma. The NEC was adjacently accompanied by dysplasia-carcinoma sequential lesions and showed a diffuse immunohistochemical overexpression of p53 and p16 proteins and the loss of Rb with no abnormal immunohistochemical staining of microsatellite instability markers and no KRAS mutations. Fifteen months later, the patient showed liver metastasis from the NEC component, followed by bone and spinal metastasis; he died 22 months after the initial diagnosis. A rare case of lethal NEC arising from long-standing extensive UC was reported. The NEC appeared to be UC-related, not incidental, and complicated by progression from dysplasia to carcinoma involving alterations of the p16-Rb pathway.

Abstract
The pathogenesis of cerebral/renal salt-wasting syndrome remains unknown. We herein present a case of salt-wasting syndrome with a natural killer-cell neoplasm without cerebral invasion. A 78-year-old man with hemophagocytic syndrome received two cycles of chemotherapy that did not induce tumor lysis syndrome, but repeatedly caused polyuria and natriuresis. The expression of tumor necrosis factor-α in the neoplasm led us to hypothesize that an oncolysis-induced cytokine storm may have caused renal tubular damage and salt wasting. Our theory may explain the pathogenic mechanism of cerebral/renal salt-wasting syndrome associated with other entities, including cerebral disorders, owing to the elevation of cytokine levels after subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Abstract
Histologic classification of ampullary carcinomas as intestinal versus pancreatobiliary is rapidly becoming a part of management algorithms, with immunohistochemical classification schemes also being devised using this classification scheme as their basis. However, data on the reproducibility and prognostic relevance of this classification system are limited. In this study, five observers independently evaluated 232 resected ampullary carcinomas with invasive component >3 mm. Overall interobserver agreement was 'fair' (κ 0.39; P<0.001) with complete agreement in 23%. Using agreement by 3/5 observers as 'consensus' 40% of cases were classified as 'mixed' pancreatobiliary and intestinal. When observers were asked to provide a final diagnosis based on the predominant pattern in cases initially classified as mixed, there was 'moderate' agreement (κ 0.44; P<0.0001) with 5/5 agreeing in 35%. Cases classified as pancreatobiliary by consensus (including those with pure-pancreatobiliary or mixed-predominantly pancreatobiliary features) had shorter overall (median 41 months) and 5-year survival (38%) than those classified as pure-intestinal/mixed-predominantly intestinal (80 months and 57%, respectively; P=0.026); however, on multivariate analysis this was not independent of established prognostic parameters. Interestingly, when compared with 476 cases of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas, the pancreatobiliary-type ampullary carcinomas had better survival (16 versus 41 months, P<0.001), even when matched by size and node status. In conclusion, presumably because of the various cell types comprising the region, ampullary carcinomas frequently show mixed phenotypes and intratumoral heterogeneity, which should be considered when devising management protocols. Caution is especially warranted when applying this histologic classification to biopsies and tissue microarrays. While ampullary carcinomas with more pancreatobiliary morphology have a worse prognosis than intestinal ones this does not appear to be an independent prognostic factor. However, pancreatobiliary-type ampullary carcinomas have a much better prognosis than their pancreatic counterparts.

Abstract
Distal common bile duct carcinoma is a poorly characterized entity for reasons such as variable terminology and difficulty in determining site of origin of intrapancreatic lesions. We compared clinicopathologic features of pancreatobiliary-type adenocarcinomas within the pancreas, but arising from the distal common bile duct, with those of pancreatic and ampullary origin. Upon careful review of 1017 pancreatoduodenectomy specimens with primary adenocarcinoma, 52 (5%) qualified as intrapancreatic distal common bile duct carcinoma. Five associated with an intraductal papillary neoplasm were excluded; the remaining 47 were compared to 109 pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas and 133 ampullary carcinomas. Distal common bile duct carcinoma patients had a younger median age (58 years) than pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients (65 years) and ampullary carcinoma patients (68 years). Distal common bile duct carcinoma was intermediate between pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and ampullary carcinoma with regard to tumor size and rates of node metastases and margin positivity. Median survival was better than for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (P=0.0010) but worse than for ampullary carcinoma (P=0.0006). Distal common bile duct carcinoma often formed an even band around the common bile duct and commonly showed intraglandular neutrophil-rich debris and a small tubular pattern. Poor prognostic indicators included node metastasis (P=0.0010), lymphovascular invasion (P=0.0299), and margin positivity (P=0.0069). Categorizing the tumors based on size also had prognostic relevance (P=0.0096), unlike categorization based on anatomic structures invaded. Primary distal common bile duct carcinoma is seen in younger patients than pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma or ampullary carcinoma. Its prognosis is significantly better than pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and worse than ampullary carcinoma, at least partly because of differences in clinical presentation. Use of size-based criteria for staging appears to improve its prognostic relevance. Invasive pancreatobiliary-type distal common bile duct carcinomas are uncommon in the West and have substantial clinicopathologic differences from carcinomas arising from the pancreas and ampulla.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Gallstone impaction at the ampulla of Vater is a critical condition, and the standard treatment is endoscopic papillotomy. However, the clinical features remain largely unclear, and some patients are reluctant to undergo papillotomy because of a bleeding tendency. The aim of this study was to clarify the clinical features of gallstone impaction at the ampulla of Vater and to examine the effectiveness of endoscopic biliary drainage without papillotomy. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively examined 30 patients who had undergone endoscopic treatment for gallstone impaction at the ampulla of Vater between 2010 and 2015. RESULTS According to the severity classification for acute cholangitis in the Tokyo Guidelines (TG13), the condition was mild in 8 patients, moderate in 14, and severe in only 8 (27 %), despite the stone impaction at the ampulla of Vater. Hyperamylasemia was observed in 18 patients (60 %); computed tomography (CT) revealed clear pancreatitis in 5 cases (17 %). Patients were classified into Group A (13 patients who received biliary drainage with papillotomy) and Group B (17 patients receiving biliary drainage without papillotomy). All patients in Group B had 1 or more types of hemorrhage risk. There were no differences between the 2 groups in the success rate of biliary drainage, the rate of elevated serum amylase the following day, or procedure-related complications. Serum amylase levels decreased the following day in all patients, even in Group B (including the 10 patients with hyperamylasemia and the 3 patients with clear pancreatitis on CT). CONCLUSIONS Even with stone impaction at the ampulla of Vater, typical clinical features of cholangitis and pancreatitis are relatively rare. Biliary drainage without papillotomy is acceptable for gallstone impaction at the ampulla of Vater.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are no established guidelines for pathologic diagnosis/reporting of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs). DESIGN An international multidisciplinary group, brought together by the Verona Pancreas Group in Italy-2013, was tasked to devise recommendations. RESULTS (1) Crucial to rule out invasive carcinoma with extensive (if not complete) sampling. (2) Invasive component is to be documented in a full synoptic report including its size, type, grade, and stage. (3) The term "minimally invasive" should be avoided; instead, invasion size with stage and substaging of T1 (1a, b, c; ≤ 0.5, > 0.5-≤ 1, > 1 cm) is to be documented. (4) Largest diameter of the invasion, not the distance from the nearest duct, is to be used. (5) A category of "indeterminate/(suspicious) for invasion" is acceptable for rare cases. (6) The term "malignant" IPMN should be avoided. (7) The highest grade of dysplasia in the non-invasive component is to be documented separately. (8) Lesion size is to be correlated with imaging findings in cysts with rupture. (9) The main duct diameter and, if possible, its involvement are to be documented; however, it is not required to provide main versus branch duct classification in the resected tumor. (10) Subtyping as gastric/intestinal/pancreatobiliary/oncocytic/mixed is of value. (11) Frozen section is to be performed highly selectively, with appreciation of its shortcomings. (12) These principles also apply to other similar tumoral intraepithelial neoplasms (mucinous cystic neoplasms, intra-ampullary, and intra-biliary/cholecystic). CONCLUSIONS These recommendations will ensure proper communication of salient tumor characteristics to the management teams, accurate comparison of data between analyses, and development of more effective management algorithms.
