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.
