We report a rare case of SRCC of the ampulla of Vater in a 38-year-old woman who presented with a small tumor at the Vater, discovered by the contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). Histopathological examination showed prominent signet-ring features.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Case presentation The patient was a 61-year-old male who presented to our hospital with increased blood levels of hepatobiliary system enzymes detected during a health check-up. He had a past medical history of hypertension and appendectomy.[surgicalcasereports.springeropen.com]
We present an elderly patient with SRCC of Vater’s Ampulla without nodal metastasis. 2. Case Presentation We report the case of a 57-year-old man, admitted with jaundice, abdominal pain four months ago and 10 kg weight loss.[file.scirp.org]
The present case suggests that curative surgery may be effective in improving the prognosis in patients with MANEC.[jstage.jst.go.jp]
Case Report: A 61 year old woman presented with painless obstructive jaundice of 2 months duration. MRI scan showed a stricture in the distal common bile duct suggestive of a neoplasm.[journals.sjp.ac.lk]
Abstract The hepatic intermittentfever of Charcot is due to recurrent biliary obstruction with secondary infection, and is characterized by recurrent attacks of chills, fever and sweats. Jaundice is variable and may deepen after each paroxysm.[annals.org]
Combination therapy with gemcitabine plus cisplatin was administered, but the patient developed dyspnea, which was attributed to heart failure secondary to mitral valve prolapse as diagnosed using echocardiography.[surgicalcasereports.springeropen.com]
Moreover, the symptoms of mitralvalveprolapse-associated heart failure worsened at this time and continuation of chemotherapy became difficult. The patient died of the primary disease 15 months postoperatively.[surgicalcasereports.springeropen.com]
Jaundice is variable and may deepen after each paroxysm. Abdominal pain, which is sometimes severe and colicky, is frequently absent.[annals.org]
The patient was hospitalized for right upper quadrant abdominal pain and jaundice which had developed 10 days prior. Computed tomography (CT) and ultrasonography (US) revealed dilatation of the common bile duct and the intrahepatic bile duct.[e-ce.org]
Case Report: A 61 year old woman presented with painless obstructive jaundice of 2 months duration. MRI scan showed a stricture in the distal common bile duct suggestive of a neoplasm.[journals.sjp.ac.lk]
Our patient had the typical characteristics of other cases in terms of age, jaundice, macroscopic appearance.[file.scirp.org]
CASE REPORT A 72-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with jaundice. He had a 15-year history of diabetes mellitus. There were no palpable masses or lymph nodes at physical examination.[joplink.net]
We highlight such a case, and its diagnostic workup. Case Report: A 61 year old woman presented with painless obstructive jaundice of 2 months duration. MRI scan showed a stricture in the distal common bile duct suggestive of a neoplasm.[journals.sjp.ac.lk]

Adjuvant chemotherapy may be appropriate in the treatment of ampullary SRCC associated with locoregional metastasis.[file.scirp.org]
In multivariate analysis, patients with a metastatic LNR 0.056 had a significantly poor prognosis in both OS and DFS.A metastatic LNR 0.056 predicted a poor DFS and OS in CAV patients after radical surgery.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
On the other hand, undifferentiated carcinoma of the common bile duct grew in a polypoid pattern and could be discovered in an early stage, leading to favorable prognosis [ 3 ].[surgicalcasereports.springeropen.com]
Accumulation of p53 protein and the Ki-67 labeling index revealed no significant difference in prognosis.[nature.com]
The present case suggests that curative surgery may be effective in improving the prognosis in patients with MANEC.[jstage.jst.go.jp]
Perineural, vascular, and lymphatic invasion are associated with a poor prognosis. Liver is the most common site (66%) of distant metastasis, followed by lymph nodes (22%). In advanced cases, lung metastasis also may occur.[thehealthscience.com]

Pathophysiology Periampullary carcinoma includes tumors arising in the head, neck, or uncinate process of the pancreas, tumors arising in the distal common bile duct, tumors arising in the duodenum, as well as tumors arising from the ampulla of Vater.[thehealthscience.com]
We gave the patient routine supplementation with R alpha lipoic acid 150mg t.i.d. and benfotiamine 80mg b.i.d. to help prevent DCA side effects. Within 1 week, the patient’s fevers disappeared.[medicorcancer.com]
Prevention Ampullary cancer is such a rare condition that experts aren’t sure what steps, if any, can be taken to prevent it. It does appear to be more common among men than women.[essentiahealth.org]
