Ampullary Lesion Assessment during ERCP – Overt & Covert Cancer, in the 🆕 Video Journal of the ESGE Academy 💡

🎯 Learn how to recognise abnormal ampullary anatomy and make the right call for management.

🔹 Step 1️⃣ – Identify abnormal anatomy: know what a normal ampulla looks like before diagnosing pathology.

🔹 Step 2️⃣ – Overt vs Covert cancer: Overt → obvious mass, ulceration, friable surface, distorted ampulla 🔴

Covert → subtle bulge, near-normal papilla, may mimic adenoma or inflammation ⚠️

🔹 Step 3️⃣ – Combine modalities: ERCP complements but doesn’t replace EUS and cross-sectional imaging.

🔹 Step 4️⃣ – Decide wisely: ampullectomy, surgery, or surveillance — based on accurate recognition.

🎥 Real-case examples of overt and covert ampullary cancer included!
