Endoscopy, 06/17/09
Lepisto A et al. - The high incidence of severe dysplasia and cancer in duodenal polyps suggests that endoscopic surveillance is essential. Endoscopic polypectomies under sedation anesthesia have partly replaced open duodenotomies. High-risk patients with Spigelman IV adenomatosis or adenomas with persisting severe dysplasia should undergo surgery with pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy before invasive cancer develops.
