CurativePalliativeSurveillanceTrans-duodenal ampullectomyRadical or Whipple’s resection
Endoscopic snare polypectomy or piecemeal polypectomyInvasive ampullary adenocarcinomaFAPSBenign ampullary adenomas that are difficult to operate on endoscopically[7]. The advantage of this is less morbidity and mortality and alternative access to ampullary tumor resection[7]Ampullary adenocarcinoma. Radical resection if tumor burden in the duct is high
