Introduction
In the late nineteenth century, the German pathologist Rudolf Virchow proposed that there was a close link between inflammation and cancer, based on cellular studies made possible by microscopy. Since then it has been observed that inflammatory diseases such as esophagitis, gastritis, and colitis sometimes precede the development of cancer in these organs. Throughout the twentieth century, anecdotal reports of pancreatitis pre­ceding pancreatic cancer have emerged. These isolated reports suggested a possible link between chronic pan­creatitis and pancreatic cancer and eventually led to a large retrospective cohort analysis conducted near the end of the twentieth century. In this chapter, we review and summarize the evidence linking chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer.
Descriptive Findings
Acute pancreatitis, chronic pancreatitis, and pancreatic cancer are the three most common pancreatic diseases. How does their incidence compare? Acute pancreatitis is one of the commonest gastrointestinal disorders and has an estimated incidence of about 13–45/100,000 per year [1]. The incidences of chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer are similar to each other, with age­standardized incidence rates of around 10/100,000 peryear.
Figure61.1 illustrates the relationship between these three diseases and the potential pathways for progres­sion from acute to chronic pancreatitis and, in some patients, to pancreatic cancer. In patients with gallstone­related pancreatitis, cholecystectomy performed on a
timely basis eliminates the major source for gallstones and precludes additional attacks. However, acute pan­creatitis also develops from many other causes, and if the cause is heavy drinking, smoking, autoimmunity, or a

genetic disorder, recurrent attacks of acute pancreatitis (recurrent pancreatitis) may occur and disease progres­sion may then lead to chronic pancreatitis. Of patients who develop chronic pancreatitis, a small proportion will develop pancreatic cancer. The average age at diag­nosis of chronic pancreatitis in patients with alcohol­related disease is about 45–55 years, approximately a decade earlier than the average age of onset of pancreatic cancer. This time sequence indicates that the direction of causality is compatible with a progression from benign to malignant disease.
Other than age, what are some of the other similarities and differences between chronic pancreatitis and pan­creatic cancer? For both diseases, smoking and obesity are recognized risk factors, whereas heavy drinking, which is strongly linked to chronic pancreatitis, is associ­ated only with a modest increased risk for pancreatic cancer[2]. Both diseases are also more frequent in black than in white populations, and diabetes frequently accompanies both diseases.
Measuring theStrength ofthe Pancreatitis–Pancreatic Cancer Association
After initial reports from single centers by Ammann and coworkers in 1984 [3] and Rocca and coworkers in 1987[4] who described the gradual increase of pancre­atic calcifications and pancreatic dysfunction with increasing duration of the disease and suggested an increased risk of pancreatic, as well as extrapancreatic cancer, in patients with chronic pancreatitis, Lowenfels and coworkers conducted the first multicenter cohort study. Among 2015 patients with well- documented chronic pancreatitis from six countries followed up for a minimum of 5 years after the diagnosis of chronic pan­creatitis, the risk of pancreatic cancer was 14.4 (95% Cl:
8.5–22.8) times higher than that in the background pop­ulation. The risk was similar in all study countries and in patients with either alcoholic or nonalcohol pancreati­tis [5]. Over a follow­cumulative incidence of pancreatic cancer was 4%. This implies that chronic pancreatitis, although a strong risk factor, explains only a small proportion of the total bur­den of pancreatic cancer. Also in contrast to the 29 patients who died from pancreatic cancer, 137 patients in the group died from other types of cancers. Because of lifestyle factors such as smoking and heavy alcohol drink­ing, most cancer deaths in patients with chronic pancre­atitis will be from nonpancreatic cancer.
Since publication of this report, several additional studies have looked at the relationship between chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer[6–29]. Raimondi and coworkers published an initial meta- analysis in 2010
up period of up to 20 years, the
based on 18 additional studies[30] with a pooled relative risk (RR) of 13.3 (95% CI: 6.1–29) for well- defined chronic pancreatitis. In 2014, Tong and coworkers pub­lished a systematic review of epidemiologic studies link­ing pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer[31]. This report contained 14 case- control studies and 3 cohort studies and found a pooled odds ratio of 7.1 (95% CI: 6.4–7.8). As in the previous meta- analysis, the results were stronger in cohort studies than in case- control studies. In a large pooled analysis of 10 case- control studies, Duell and coworkers reported a nearly threefold increased risk of pancreatic cancer in patients where there was a minimum of 2 years separating the diagnosis of pancreatitis from pancreatic cancer[10] More recent reviews and meta- analyses were performed by Kirkegard and coworkers [32] and Ghandi and coworkers [33]. Based on these reports and more recent studies, we pre­pared an updated meta- analysis of 26 studies, stratified by broad type of chronic pancreatitis (Fig. 61.2). The pooled risk estimates are as follows: RR = 12.0 (95% CI:
7.7–18.7) for 19 studies in patients with definite chronic pancreatitis[3,5–22], RR = 69 (95% CI: 56–85) for three studies in patients with hereditary pancreatitis[23–25], RR = 109 (95% CI: 56–211) for two studies in patients with tropical pancreatitis or similar forms of idiopathic pancreatitis from India[26–27]. For two studies compar­ing the risk of pancreatic cancer in SPINK1- related pan­creatitis compared to idiopathic pancreatitis, the pooled RR = 20.3 (95% CI: 9.1–45.3)[28–29].
Among recent major representative studies, a nation­wide report from Denmark provides further evidence for a strong link between pancreatitis and pancreatic can­cer[16]. In this follow- up study of nearly 12,000 patients with chronic pancreatitis and nearly 120,000 matched controls the authors found a 6.9- fold increased risk of death from pancreatic cancer in pancreatitis patients compared with the control population. Again, the risk of pancreatic cancer was similar in patients with either alcoholic or nonalcoholic pancreatitis. Based on an elec­tronic medical record system, Hao and coworkers[18] examined data from 1656 patients with chronic pancrea­titis from Shanghai Hospital, China and confirmed a markedly increased risk of pancreatic cancer (SIR 95% CI: 12.5–30.9) especially in heavy smokers. More recently, Munigala and coworkers[21] performed a ret­rospective study of US Veterans Administration identify­ing as many as 21,785 patients with chronic pancreatitis, of whom 226 developed pancreatic cancer 2 years after chronic pancreatitis (HR = 4.28; 95% CI: 3.74–4.89). The risk was consistent and sustained beyond 5 years and 10 years of follow- up. Finally, Vujasinovic and coworkers assessed the cumulative incidence of pancreatic cancer in 581 patients with definite chronic pancreatitis from Karolinska University Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden[34]. Excluding patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer

Discussion
Reviewing the evidence accumulated over several decades reveals a strong link between chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer. Clinicians must still be aware of reverse causality because one symptom of pancreatic cancer can be sudden onset of pancreatitis in the absence of known risk factors. However, the evidence from several long- term

follow- up studies with exclusion of early- onset pancreatic cancer confirms the pancreatitis–pancreatic cancer link. The findings of this relationship in the pancreas agrees with information from other organs, and confirms Virchow’s nineteenth- century hypothesis. As yet we do not have a full understanding of the mechanisms underly­ing the transformation from a nonmalignant disease to cancer.
All the reports indicate that the cumulative risk of pan­creatic cancer in patients with long- standing confirmed chronic pancreatitis is low— probably less than 5%. This implies that until we develop noninvasive screening pro­cedures with greater sensitivity and specificity than are currently available, screening patients with chronic pancreatitis is not likely to be rewarding.

Hereditary pancreatitis due to inherited PRSS1 muta­tions is a rare inherited autosomal dominant genetic dis­order that causes early- onset pancreatitis characterized by recurrent attacks eventually leading to chronic pan­creatitis. As with other risk factors, such as smoking, long duration of exposure increases the risk of cancer. Because patients with this type of pancreatitis have about a 70% lifetime risk of developing pancreatic cancer, already in 2001, minimally invasive imaging screening with endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), multiphasic helical computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging/magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRI/MRCP) have been proposed for patients with the hereditary pancreatitis phenotype, beginning at the age of 40 years[35]. Recent international consensus guide­lines recommend surveillance in affected individuals with hereditary pancreatitis due to inherited PRSS1 mutations, but estimate that the risk of pancreatic cancer in patients with chronic pancreatitis associated with SPINK1 or other germline mutations including those ofCFTR, CTRC, CPA1, and CEL is not high enough to justify surveillance[36].

What are fruitful areas for additional research that might benefit patients with underlying pancreatitis? Pancreatic cysts are now being detected with increasing frequency and we need to be able to identify or confirm subgroups of these patients who have an increased risk of pancreatic cancer[37].
Pancreatic cancer can mimic nonmalignant disease such as autoimmune pancreatitis, leading in some patients to unnecessary pancreatic surgery[38,39]. We need to develop biological tests and/or biomarkers that can reliably distinguish between chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer. Finally, collecting and storing biologic samples from patients with well- documented chronic pancreatitis will help us improve our understanding of the gradual transition of pancreatitis to pancreatic cancer.
The irreversible pathologic changes characteristic of chronic pancreatitis make this disease difficult to treat and the progressive cellular disruption of glandular and ductal tissues leads eventually, in some patients, to pan­creatic cancer. Efforts to reduce lifestyle factors such as smoking and alcohol drinking in patients with recurrent

Indications forInterventional Endoscopic or Surgical Therapy
Belt- like upper abdominal pain is regarded as a cardinal symptom of chronic pancreatitis (CP), together with weight loss, steatorrhea, and diabetes mellitus. In the absence of causal therapeutic options, treatment is restricted to symptom control by means of enzyme replacement, pain therapy, and optimal control of endo­crine insufficiency. The complexity of disease manage­ment is justified as morphology on imaging and pain level do not correlate in most patients and an impressive ductal obstruction or intraductal calcification may be associated with little pain and subtle findings on imaging may be associated with a significant loss of quality of life due to constant pain[1]. Comparative trials with sham interven­tions to evaluate the placebo effect or the natural course of the disease have rarely been conducted, one example being the trial by Seza et al. Between 30% and 60% of patients develop complications of their disease such as strictures of the common bile duct, inflammatory masses, pancreatic pseudocysts, or pancreatic duct strictures or ductal stones, which require interventional or surgical treatment. Chronic pancreatitis with severe pain requir­ing constant analgesics should be treated by interven­tional or surgical procedures dependent on the symptom­of an inflammatory mass clearly favors a surgical resec­tion. In the case of a dilated pancreatic duct due to stric­tures and/or ductal stone both endoscopic as well as surgical drainage procedures are effective. The indication of an endoscopic drainage has not been fully clarified in randomized controlled trials (RCT). Endoscopic treat­ment of a dominant stricture of the main pancreatic duct is often followed by pain relief in the short term [3,4].
causing pathogenic features[2]. The presence
Retrospective studies have reported long-
term pain relief in 32–68% of patients [4]. Two randomized controlled studies directly compared endoscopic procedures with resection or a surgical drainage procedure[1,5,6]. Those studies proved surgery to be superior to endoscopy with respect to long- term outcome; however, due to limita­tions in the study design, a reliable evidence- based assess­ment remains difficult under the current lack of consideration of the placebo effect, the natural course, and a possible selection bias. Nevertheless, endoscopic drainage can achieve a long- lasting complete or partial pain relief in at least one- third of patients; it is associated with lower mortality and does not impede surgery as a second- line therapy [6]. In the presence of a resectable pancreatic mass suspected to be caused by pancreatic carcinoma surgical resection should be performed. Without surgery, life expectancy for patients with pan­creatic carcinoma is less than 1 year; after successful resection 20–25% of patients may survive more than 5 years[7–9]. Gastric outlet obstruction secondary to CP requires surgical or endoscopic treatment for persistent clinical symptoms. A noninterventional management supplemented by endoscopic dilatation may be sufficient for an adequate quality of life in at least 30% of cases. According to the natural course of CP further interven­tion will be necessary in about 30–60% of patients[10]. As there are no studies directly comparing the efficacy of pancreatic head resection, bypass surgery, and endo­scopic insertion of self-
expanding metal stents (fcSEMS)[11], the decision may be taken in view of the patient’s comorbidities. Symptomatic stenosis of the common bile duct (CBD) will develop in 10–40% of cases requiring endoscopy with dilation and stent insertion. The outcome of endoscopic therapy in patients without acute inflammation of the pancreas has improved with

new techniques but is still not entirely satisfactory. Stent therapy rarely resolves a stricture beyond 1 year of ther­apy [12], in particular in the presence of calcifications within the pancreatic head [13]. Lasting patency rates have significantly improved with the use of fcSEMS. Surgical resection should be performed if symptoms or cholestasis persist after temporary endoscopic therapy not longer than a year. For obstructive chronic painful pancreatitis with ductal dilatation of more than 5 mm, a recent trial (ESCAPE) recommended earlier surgery after a maximum of 6months of opiate pain medication with­out clinical improvement or preceded by 3 months of endoscopic therapy without symptom improvement[14]. Fragmentation and removal of stones within the pancre­atic duct by extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) have somewhat replaced surgery since its intro­duction in 1989. Several retrospective studies have shown ESWL as an effective and safe management option for pain relief in chronic calcifying pancreatitis with pancre­atic main duct stones greater than 5 mm[15], for which ESWL followed by ERCP may be the standard of care. Intraductal lithotripsy under direct endoscopic vision is a promising technique in evolution. Interventional endo­scopic options in CP will be discussed in more detail below.
Treatment ofPancreatic Cysts
According to the revised Atlanta classification a pancre­atic pseudocyst is an encapsulated collection of fluid with a well- defined inflammatory wall usually outside the pancreas with minimal or no necrotic tissue content. This entity usually arises in connection with CP[16]. A walled- off necrosis (WON) is defined as a mature, encapsulated collection of pancreatic and/or peripancre­atic necrosis that has developed a well- defined inflam­matory wall. WON usually occurs >4 weeks after the onset of necrotizing pancreatitis[16]. The prevalence of pancreatic pseudocysts in CP ranges between 20% and 40% [17]. They occur with the highest frequency in patients with alcoholic CP (70–78%), followed by idio­pathic CP patients (6–16%), and biliary pancreatitis patients (6–8%)[17,18]. Approximately 40% of the fluid collections resolve spontaneously within the first 6weeks after an acute attack of pancreatitis. In contrast, sponta­neous remission of pseudocysts after 12weeks is a rare event. Complications are observed in up to two- thirds of cases encompassing pain, infection, hemorrhage, cystic rupture, or obstruction of adjacent organs such as chol­estasis, gastric outlet obstruction, or vascular stenosis. A multivariate analysis showed a pseudocyst/WON size <4 cm as the only favorable factor for spontaneous reso­lution[19]. The increase in size of a pseudocyst/WON to
over 5 cm in diameter is associated with an increased risk of complications[20]. Asymptomatic pseudocysts >5 cm in diameter which do not resolve within 6weeks can be an indication for treatment. The aim of this intervention is to avoid possible complications that may occur later in the course of the disease, such as a cyst rupture, infection or hemorrhage, the likelihood of such complications being approximately 50%. However, symptomatic pseu­docysts should undergo treatment regardless of their size.
Only limited information is available with regard to interventional therapy of pancreatic pseudocysts for pain management. Most of the data at hand are based on retrospective case series [21–24], but three systematic reviews are available[25–27]. Pain relief will be achieved in a large number of patients (about 80%). Although medical management of CP can result in pain relief, in a certain percentage of patients, interventional or surgical drainage is still the more effective form of pain manage­ment regardless of the drainage procedure.
A diagnostic needle aspiration of the cyst may be per­formed for suspected infection or for suspected cancer. If needle aspiration of the cyst confirms an infection, then drainage is indicated. Surgical treatment should be carried out if malignancy is suspected. In 28% of all MRI scans of the abdomen, a cystic lesion of the pancreas is discovered as an incidental finding[28] when population­based cohorts are investigated, albeit most of these cysts are smaller than 1 cm in diameter. More than two- thirds of these lesions are dysontogenetic cysts or pancreatic pseudocysts. Of the cystic lesions that are not pancreatic pseudocysts but genuine cystic neoplasms, 30% are benign serous cystadenomas. Forty- five percent of the resected lesions are mucinous- cystic neoplasms and 25% intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN). Solid pseudopapillary tumors or cystic acinar cell carcinoma are rather rare entities. For the differential diagnosis of cystic tumors in asymptomatic patients, the question of a connection to the pancreatic duct (IPMN and pancre­atic pseudocysts) and of the size of the cystic lesion (indi­cation for resection in the case of IPMN or therapeutic indication for pseudocyst) is essential. Diagnostic needle aspiration of a cyst with the aid of EUS helps in differen­tiating between premalignant cystic neoplasms, cystic malignancies, and pseudocysts. In case the fluid analysis reveals a CEA >400 ng/mL, a variably increased or low amylase (lipase), high viscosity, mucin or epithelial cells in the cyst content, then a mucinous neoplasm must be assumed [28–30]. In addition to CEA and amylase/ lipase, low pancreatic cyst fluid glucose has been estab­lished as a marker for the differentiation of mucinous versus non- mucinous pancreatic lesions. In 609 cystic lesions examined, a systematic review showed signifi­cantly increased pooled sensitivity (91% vs. 56%; P < 0.001)

and diagnostic accuracy (94 % vs. 85 %; P < 0.001) com­pared to CEA alone[31].
If a connection to the pancreatic duct is excluded the final diagnosis of a mucinous cystic neoplasm (MCN) can be made. A serous cystadenoma is diagnosed in 30% of cystic lesions and virtually never turns into a malig­nant lesion. In this case aspiration of the cyst is negative for mucin, CEA, and amylase. Cytology reveals a glycogen- rich epithelium. Surgical, percutaneous, or endoscopic drainage of pancreatic pseudocysts demon­strate comparable results regarding technical success, efficacy, and recurrence rates [26,32]. Percutaneous drainage is associated with the risk of external fistula and may affect the patient’s quality of life. Endoscopic drain­age is less prone to complications when compared to sur­gical procedures. A systematic review of retrospective series of endoscopic and surgical drainage showed simi­lar morbidity (13.3% vs. 16%) and long-
term pseudocyst
recurrence (10.7% vs. 9.8%) but lower mortality (0.2% vs.
2.5%) achieved by an endoscopic drainage[33]. Therefore, the endoscopic approach should have first preference as it is less invasive and more convenient for the patient. In a recent RCT that compared endoscopic versus surgical cystogastrostomy for pancreatic pseudocyst drainage endoscopic treatment was associated with shorter hospi­tal stays, improved physical and mental health status of the patients, and lower costs[32]. However, the decision between endoscopic and surgical drainage should take into account the cyst location and additional pathophysi­ological features. Surgical drainage may be the preferable therapy in hemorrhagic pseudocysts as endoscopic drainage is associated with a higher risk of bleeding. Approximately 10% of pseudocysts recur in the long term after endoscopic drainage (Table 62.1). Although initial therapy of nonhemorrhagic pseudocysts should be endoscopic drainage, surgery may follow in case of recur­rence. Drainage of pseudocysts can be carried out by transgastric, transduodenal, or transpapillary routes. Transmural drainage should be done under endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) guidance to assess the pseudocyst location, size, wall, content, and adjacent blood vessels. Two RCT compared transmural drainage with and with­out EUS guidance[34,35]. No difference was observed in terms of morbidity and clinical outcome but technical success was higher with EUS. The success rate in 1018 published patients with transmural drainage of a pseu­docyst was 87% (Table 62.1), with more recent studies reporting success rates of more than 90%. The mortality rate in larger case series involving more than 30 patients was 0.2%, the recurrence and complications rates are reported to be around 9% and 13%, respectively. Without antibiotic prophylaxis the procedure- related incidence of an infection of a pseudocyst and the risk of develop­ment of a pancreatic abscess increases[36,37]. Antibiotic
prophylaxis for transmural or transpapillary drainage of pancreatic pseudocysts is recommended in recent guide­lines based on expert opinion [4,38]. Double-
pigtail stents should be used for transmural drainage of pancre­atic pseudocysts because straight stents are associated with more frequent and severe complications in a retro­spective study[39]. Early stent retrieval within 2weeks after cyst resolution was associated with a higher rate of recurrence in a prospective randomized trial suggesting that long- term stent placement for more than 2months may prevent recurrence without an increase of severe adverse events[40]. In its clinical guideline ESGE recom­mends transmural drainage of pancreatic pseudocysts by inserting at least two double- pigtail plastic stents, which should not be retrieved before at least 2months of stent­ing [4]. Recently, short, lumen- apposing, fully covered,
expandable metal stents (LAMS) have been devel-
self­oped for EUS- guided drainage of peripancreatic fluid collections.
In CP with advanced pancreatic ductal changes, espe­cially with pancreaticolithiasis, a pseudocyst should be considered and treated as part of an overall therapeutic concept. For small pancreatic cysts, the tendency to regress due to persistent inflammatory stimuli is a maxi­mum of 26%, so that even in the case of small sympto­matic cysts, an interventional or surgical procedure may be considered in the individual patient context.
Due to its ease of use and the large diameter, the LAMS may make drainage of peripancreatic fluid collections more effective, particularly the endoscopic debridement of WON [41,42]. Despite initial reports on bleeding, recent meta- analyses demonstrated superior efficacy and safety compared to plastic stents in the management of peripancreatic fluid collections [43,44]. The basic ques­tion of an ideal timing for WON drainage in case of infected pancreatic necrosis has been studied in the POINTER trial. With regard to mortality and the com­prehensive complication index (which includes all major complications), there was no significant difference between immediate catheter drainage (catheter drainage within 24 hours after randomization) and postponed catheter drainage (stage of walled- off necrosis, when necrotic collections were largely or fully encapsulated). However, the cohort of the later WON drainage installa­tion (partly percutaneous, partly EUS- assisted) required fewer interventions overall, especially in terms of the number of necrosectomies required, and patients stayed in hospital for a correspondingly shorter time [45]. Of note, the median time to “immediate catheter drainage” was after a mean of 24days (median, 24days; interquartile range, 20 to 30) after onset of symptoms and postponed catheter drainage after a mean of 34days (median, 29days; interquartile range, 24 to 40) after onset of symptoms (mean difference, −10days; 95% confidence interval [CI],
