摘要
Mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma(MANEC)is a malignant tumor with adenocarcinoma and neuroendocrine components,with≥30%of each component required.MANEC of the ampulla is rare.To the best of our knowledge,only 15 cases of MANEC of the ampulla have been reported in the English-language literature.Here,we report two cases of MANEC of the ampulla in two womenaged 43 and 60 years,which was confirmed by histology after pancreaticoduodenectomy.These tumors contained neuroendocrine and adenocarcinoma components.The neuroendocrine components were positive for chromogranin A(Cg A),synaptophysin(Syn)and CD56 by immunostaining.The adenocarcinoma components were negative for Cg A,Syn and CD56.Both cases were T3N0M0(StageⅢA).They survived for 15 and 20 mo after surgery,respectively.A brief discussion about the histopathological features,clinical behavior and treatment of MANEC of ampulla,and review of the relevant literature are presented.
