Villous appearing duodenal mass of ampulla, secondary to ampullary duct obstruction. 43 yo White man. A. Plicae show expansion of stroma by edema with inflammation including neutrophils (neutrophils not shown), by foci of lamina propria hemorrhage (red arrows), and by dilated lymphatics (black arrows).  B. A fragment shows dilated ducts on left and center, with connected “proliferating” ducts at right. C. PAS AB stain shows these ducts, by virtue of the thin red line, are ampullary, not Brunner’s glands. D. Nuclei in the proliferated area show striking anisokaryosis and anisonucleosis, as well as hyperchromasia. Note the mitosis (arrow).  This notwithstainging, there is an appearance of connection between the ducts. No net appears. Neither are there half glands or aberrant isolated cells.  E. On PAS AB stain lay a focus of fibrinopurulent exudate near the proliferating area.

Invasive carcinoma of duodenal ampulla, intestinal type. A. Ulceration tops Brunner’s glands [green arrow]; at the edge lie glands [blue arrow] with changes suggesting adenoma (100X). B. Ki67 stain establishes adenoma by surface extension of brown nuclei (100X). C. The lesion was a mass, prompting rebiopsy. The cauterized fragment shows disorderly spread of glands, with dilated glands at base [arrows] not readily explained by obstruction (40X)  D.Two cancerous prongs, one on left [black arrow], one on right [blue arrow] each show spread about muscle fibers (200X). E. The Whipple resection showed the same dilated spreading glands [arrows] at base, redolent of the spread of some well-differentiated colonic adenocarcinomas through muscle (40X). F. Cribriformed cancerous nests [arrows] cannot be Brunner’s glands, because the nuclei are too variable and lack polarity and because they abut crypts extending to the surface; cautery would have made this an impossible distinction (200X).

60 year old woman with poorly differentiated ampullary adenocarcinoma and obstructive cholestasis in liver. A. An isolated tumor fragment (black arrow) and two fragments with tumor undermining small intesatinal mucosa (green arrows) are seen. B. Large, ovoid cancer nuclei with abundant grey cytoplasm form sheets with only rare acini (arrow). C. Tumor cells are CK7 positive. D. Tumor cells are CK20 negative. E. Portal triads (black arrows) are expanded, lacking intense inflammation. A septal duct (green arrow) lacks definite onion skinning. F. Proliferated peripheral bile ductules (black arrows) sometimes have neutrophils (white arrow), which should not be interpreted as ascending cholangitis. Next to the artery (red arrow) lies the bile duct (yellow arrow), which has disturbed nuclei, but no neutrophils. Note occasional eosinophils (cyan arrows). G. Hepatocytes with feathery degeneration. Arrows point to dilated cholangioles, one filled with a bile plug.
