Sumario: | Background and study aims Endoscopic diagnosis of superficial non-ampullary duodenal epithelial tumors (SNADETs) has not been established. Probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE: Cellvizio) provides real-time endomicroscopic analysis. We developed and validated a new pCLE classification of SNADET based on abnormal findings. Patients and methods pCLE scanning of 20 SNADET lesions including 16 adenomas and four carcinomas was retrospectively evaluated to explore abnormal pCLE findings in relation to histological features. Diagnostic yield of pCLE findings was prospectively evaluated in an additional 20 SNADET lesions including 16 adenomas and four carcinomas. Results In a retrospective study, we identified four abnormal pCLE findings of SNADETs: (1) dark epithelium, (2) columnar cells irregularly extending to the lumen, (3) distorted crypt structure, and (4) fluorescein leakage. Dark epithelium distinguished neoplastic lesions (adenomas and carcinomas) from non-neoplastic duodenal mucosa with a sensitivity of 90 % and a specificity of 100 %. Distorted crypt structure distinguished carcinomas from adenomas and non-neoplastic duodenal mucosa with a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 94 %. In the prospective study, the sensitivity and the specificity of the dark epithelium for the diagnosis of neoplastic lesions (adenomas + carcinomas) was 75% and 100 %. Sensitivity and the specificity of the distorted crypt structure for discrimination of carcinoma from adenoma were 100 % and 94 %, respectively. Conclusions The pCLE findings correlated with the histopathology of the SNADETs. Dark epithelium and distorted crypt structure were informative pCLE findings to predict presence of neoplasia and cancer in the SNADET, respectively.
