There is not enough evidence to establish an appropriate surveillance strategy after operative resection for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm.

Methods

This study included 257 consecutive intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm patients who underwent operative resection between July 1999 and March 2014. The frequencies, patterns, time-to-event, and risk factors for postoperative recurrence in intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm were analyzed.

Results

Fifty-six intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm patients (21.8%) had recurrence after the operation, including those with remnant pancreatic recurrence (n = 14) and extrapancreatic recurrence (n = 42). Remnant pancreatic recurrence had no influence on the overall survival, whereas patients with extrapancreatic recurrence had significantly worse overall survival (P < .001). Furthermore, the overall survival of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm patients with extrapancreatic recurrence was shorter than that for patients with remnant pancreatic recurrence (median overall survival: 21.8 versus 110.6 months; P < .001). Five patients experienced remnant pancreatic recurrence >5 years after the operation. All extrapancreatic recurrences occurred within 5 years. We found that the positive pancreatic transection margin was the only independent risk factor for remnant pancreatic recurrence (P < .001), whereas the risk factors for extrapancreatic recurrence were invasive intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (P < .001), mixed-type (P = .008), elevated serum CA19-9 (P = .019), and intraoperative transfusion (P = .025) in the multivariate analysis.

Conclusion

Our data suggest that all intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm patients should be subject to continual surveillance every 6 months for >5 years after operation to evaluate the remnant pancreatic recurrence; furthermore, the data indicate that strict 5-year surveillance, including every 3 months for 1 year after the operation and every 6 months thereafter, is necessary for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm patients at risk for extrapancreatic recurrence.
