Transduodenal ampullectomy (TDA) effectively diagnoses and treats unexplained dilation of the cholangiopancreatic duct (UDCD), demonstrating superior diagnostic rates compared to preoperative biopsies (78.41% vs. 65.94%). A study evaluated 203 patients and reported a postoperative complication rate of 27.07% with no mortality. Five-year survival rates varied significantly: 68.31% for adenocarcinoma, 85.99% for adenomas with high-grade dysplasia, and 100% for benign lesions, highlighting TDA’s utility in addressing complex ampullary diseases.
