Ampulloma
Definition
A tumor formation, either benign or malignant, structurally developed at the level of the ampulla of Vater (the confluence area of the common bile duct and the main pancreatic duct into the duodenum). This neoplasm frequently causes early obstructive jaundice by blocking the biliary flow and requires advanced imaging investigations and complex surgical intervention for resection.
