Abstract
Endoscopic RFA, alone or in combination with other modalities, may effectively treat intraductal extension of ampullary neoplasms. Ductal strictures were common after RFA but responded to endoscopic stent therapy. RFA may be appropriate in selected patients, particularly when the main treatment alternative is pancreaticoduodenectomy.
