AIM:To provide trends in incidence,management and survival of cancer of the ampulla of Vater in a welldefined French population.METHODS:Data were obtained from the populationbased digestive cancer registry of Burgundy over a34-year period.Age-standardized incidence rates were computed using the world standard population.Average annual variations in incidence rates were estimated using a poisson regression.A univariate and multivariate relative survival analysis was performed.RESULTS:Age-standardized incidence rates were0.46 and 0.30 per 100000 inhabitants for men and women,respectively.Incidence rate increased from0.26(1976-1984)to 0.58(2003-2009)for men and remained stable for women.Resection for cure was performed in 48.3%of cases.This proportion was stable over the study period.Among cases with curative resection,pancreatico-duodenectomy was performed in94.0%of cases and ampullectomy in 6.0%of cases.A total of 50.8%of cancers of the ampulla of Vater were diagnosed at an advanced stage.Their proportion remained stable throughout the study period.The overall1-and 5-year relative survival rates were 60.2%and27.7%,respectively.Relative survival did not vary over time.Treatment and stage at diagnosis were the most important determinants of survival.The 5-year relative survival rate was 41.5%after resection for cure,9.5%after palliative surgery and 6.7%after symptomatic treatment.In multivariate analysis,only stage at diagnosis significantly influenced the risk of death.CONCLUSION:Cancer of the ampulla of Vater is still uncommon,but its incidence increased for men in Burgundy.Diagnosis is often made at an advanced stage,dramatically worsening the prognosis.
