Lim JH et al. – Mucin–producing bile duct tumors are characterized by intraductal papillary tumors producing large amounts of mucin. The tumor comprises macroscopically prominent intraductal papillary neoplastic epithelia and produces a large amount of viscid mucin, resulting in dilatation of the bile ducts. The surface of the tumor is frond–like, velvety, or serrated. The tumor exhibits five intraductal growth patterns; polypoid intraductal growth, mucosal spreading growth, cast–like intraductal growth, cystic tumor, and intraductal floating tumors.
