| Abstract: | Background and study aims: Localized-type bile duct carcinoma (LBDC) is often accompanied by extensive intraepithelial tumor spread (ITS) ≥2 cm which makes radical resection more difficult. This retrospective case review compared the diagnostic accuracy of endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC) and peroral cholangioscopy (POCS) to detect ITS beyond the visible LBDCs. Patients and methods: Forty-four consecutive LBDC patients diagnosed between April 2004 to October 2008 who underwent radical resection with histopathological analysis were included in this study. Extensive ITS was found histopathologically in one-third of the cases (32%). The outcome parameters were the presence or absence of extensive ITS and the extent of extensive ITS proximal and distal to the main tumor. Results: It was not possible to pass the cholangioscopic through the tumor sites in 6 cases. ERC correctly identified the presence of extensive ITS in 11/14 cases and did not yield any false-positive results. The three ERC-negative cases were all correctly identified by POCS plus biopsy since the cholangioscope could be passed in all three cases. The extent of extensive ITS was correctly diagnosed by ERC alone, ERC with POCS, and ERC with POCS plus mapping biopsy in 22%, 77%, and 100% of cases, respectively. Conclusions: The presence of extensive ITS could be correctly detected in 80% of cases by ERC alone. POCS with mapping biopsy provided perfect diagnostic accuracy of not only the presence/absence but also the extent of extensive ITS. However, POCS has the limitation that the cholangioscope cannot be passed through the tumor sites in approximately 15% of cases. |
