Los adenomas ampulares habitualmente se tratan mediante papilectomía endoscópica, pero ciertas características anatómicas o tumorales excluyen al paciente del manejo endoscópico. En estas situaciones, se recomienda una vía de tratamiento diferente.
ESGE suggests considering surgical treatment of ampullary adenomas when endoscopic resection is not feasible for technical reasons (e. g. diverticulum, size > 4 cm), and in the case of intraductal involvement (of > 20 mm).
However, surgical transduodenal ampullectomy is still an acceptable option for ampullary adenoma, being preferred to endoscopic papillectomy in the following settings: intraductal involvement; impossibility of performing endoscopic papillectomy for technical reasons (e. g. diverticulum, size > 4 cm); incomplete resection after endoscopic papillectomy with positive margins; and local recurrence not treatable by endoscopy.
