Abstract
Background and Aims
Periampullary subepithelial lesions are generally removed by surgery. We demonstrate a video of endoscopic resection of a periampullary duodenal paraganglioma.
Methods
A combination of ERCP and endoscopic submucosal dissection skills was used to facilitate separation of the subepithelial lesion from the ampulla and lesion resection.
Results
En bloc resection with negative margins was achieved. Pathology confirmed a gangliocytic paraganglioma.
Conclusions
Endoscopic resection is a feasible and less-invasive alternative to pancreaticoduodenectomy for selected periampullary subepithelial lesions.
期刊介绍:
VideoGIE, an official video journal of the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, is an Open Access, online-only journal to serve patients with digestive diseases. VideoGIE publishes original, single-blinded peer-reviewed video case reports and case series of endoscopic procedures used in the study, diagnosis, and treatment of digestive diseases. Videos demonstrate use of endoscopic systems, devices, and techniques; report outcomes of endoscopic interventions; and educate physicians and patients about gastrointestinal endoscopy. VideoGIE serves the educational needs of endoscopists in training as well as advanced endoscopists, endoscopy staff and industry, and patients. VideoGIE brings video commentaries from experts, legends, committees, and leadership of the society. Careful adherence to submission guidelines will avoid unnecessary delays, as incomplete submissions may be returned to the authors before initiation of the peer review process.
