22
Q

why the pancreas is very diffucly to take biobsy ?

A

its retroperitoneal and its in area highly vascular ?

23
Q

Pancreatic cancer is

A

sixth leading cause of cancer death.

24
Q

Ductal adenocarcinomas arise most commonly in the

A

head of the gland

25
Q

Ductal adenocarcinomas are characterized by …

A

characterized by neoplastic tubular glands within a markedly desmoplastic fibrous stroma

26
Q

Cystic tumors of the pancreas …

A

may be serous or mucinous.

27
Q

Serous cyst adenomas are typically found in

A

older women

are large aggregations of multiple small cysts, almost like bubble wrap. They are benign.

28
Q

Mucinous tumours have

A

potential for malignant transformation
They include

  • mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCNs)
  • intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs)
29
Q

pseudocysts be confused

A

Mucinous tumors

30
Q

Peri-umpullary tumors are

A

Group of tumors of different origin around ampulla of Vater

31
Q

Peri-umpullary tumors are in …

A

1-doudenal tumor .

2-lower CBD cholangiocarcinoma.

3-pancreatic head tumor

4-others other malignant neoplasms can arise at the ampulla, such as carcinoid tumors

5- high-grade neuroendocrine carcinomas.

32
Q

Peri-umpullary tumors is different intity from the pancreatic CA by

A

good prognosis and early presentation and the most common diagnostic feature is obstructive juaindice

33
Q

Clinical features Of Pancreatic CA in the head ?

A
  • painless jaundice common type is obstructive
  • nausea
  • epigastric discomfort
  • Pruritus
  • dark urine and pale stools with steatorrhoea.

-Upper abdominal symptoms in a recently diagnosed diabetic, especially in one above 50 years of age, with no family history or obesity, should raise suspicion

+Pruritus or itch is defined as an unpleasant sensation of the skin that provokes the urge to scratch. sign of cancer

34
Q

Clinical features Of Pancreatic CA in the body and tail ?

A

( It is often grow silently, and present at an advanced unresectable stage. )

  • vague discomfort,
  • anorexia and weight loss, and are frequently dismissed by both patient and doctor.
  • Back pain is a worrying symptom, raising the possibility of retroperitoneal infiltration.
  • unexplained attack of pancreatitis It is often grow silently, and present at an advanced unresectable stage.
35
Q

Examinationc of Pancreatic CA …

A
  • when we do abdominal examination and palpate palpable Gallblader its more likely CA
    if not its stone this called (courvoiser law )

_Other signs of intra-abdominal malignancy should be looked for with care, such as a palpable mass,
ascites, supraclavicular nodes and tumour deposits in the pelvis; when present, they indicate a grim prognosis

36
Q

Investigation of Pancreatic CA …

A

-CBP blood film morphology.

-LFT ---- obstructive jaundice. 
which include 
prothrombin time (PT/INR)
 activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (aPTT)
 albumin
 bilirubin (direct and indirect),

-Ultrasound
not very senstive
whether or not the bile duct is dilated. If it is, and there is a genuine suspicion of a tumor in the head of the pancreas,

  • contrast-enhanced CT scan
    the preferred test

+ is a tumour in the pancreas and if it is resectable.
+The presence of hepatic or peritoneal metastases, +lymph node metastases distant from the pancreatic head
+ encasement of the superior mesenteric,hepatic or coeliac artery by tumour are clear contraindications to surgical resection.

-Endoscopic U\S
used in
+Transduodenal or transgastric FNA or Trucut biopsy
(used for the diameter , consistancy , biopsy) used only when imaging fail because vascular invasion or when there is pesdocycte sperated from tumer to take biobsy

-ERCP and biliary stenting
diagnostic and for assessment of the severity of tumor
by can relieves the jaundice provide a brush cytology or biopsy done only when there is cholangitis and doubt and sever cases

37
Q

whats the benefit of the CT scan for PC ?

A

+ is a tumour in the pancreas and if it is resectable.

+The presence of hepatic or peritoneal metastases,

+lymph node metastases distant from the pancreatic head

+ encasement of the superior mesenteric,hepatic or coeliac artery by tumour are clear contraindications to surgical resection.

38
Q

Endoscopic U\S used in

A

used in
+Transduodenal or transgastric FNA or Trucut biopsy
(used for the diameter , consistancy , biopsy)

used only when imaging fail because vascular invasion or when there is pesdocycte sperated from tumer to take biobsy

39
Q

ct can be used as

A

diagnostic and for assessment of the severity of tumor

40
Q

ERCP and biliary stenting is indicated in:

A

1- if there is any suggestion of cholangitis.

2- if there is diagnostic doubt (small ampullary lesions may not be seen on CT.

3- in sever case
if the patient is deeply jaundiced (serum bilirubin >250 mmol/L), or there are distressing symptoms (e.g. pruritus) and there is likely to be a delay between diagnosis and surgery.

41
Q

It relieves the jaundice and can also provide a brush cytology or biopsy specimen to confirm the diagnosis. …..

A

ERCP and biliary stenting can relieves the jaundice

provide a brush cytology or biopsy

42
Q

Management pf pancreatic CA …

A
  • 85 per cent of patients with ductal adenocarcinoma are unsuitable for resection because the disease is too advanced so need palliative TRT
  • 15% need surgical treatment
43
Q

which tumor can we perform the surgery on then ? and why ?

A

1- cyctic tumor because it good prognosis

2-umors of the ampulla have a good prognosis

44
Q

in unresectable tumor

A

Palliation

47
Q

Preoperative preparation to patient with obstructive jaundice مهم كللللللللللللللللللش

A

1-Intravenous fluid preferably G\W + mannitol 200ml\twice daily in order to prevent hepatorenal shut down.
