Co-existence of intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct and Opisthorchis viverrini

Abstract

Highlight Luvira and colleagues present images of the intraoperative findings of Opisthorchis viverrini coexistent with intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct. Along with evidence from previous reports, these findings suggest that Opisthorchis viverrini may play some role in the tumorigenesis of intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct.

Keywords: Opisthorchis viverrini; choledochoscopy; intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct; risk factor.
