“…Patients diagnosed with IPMN-B and who are considered surgical candidates will likely undergo surgical resection as definitive treatment [15]. If there is extensive superficial spreading of the tumor along the biliary tree, liver transplant and pancreaticoduodenectomy may be performed.…”

Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the biliary tract (IPMN-B) is an increasingly recognized pathologic entity characterized by intraluminal papillary masses and increased mucin secretion, resulting in obstruction and dilation of the biliary tree. These lesions, rarely seen in clinical practice in the United States, are now considered to be important precursors for the development of cholangiocarcinoma. Therefore, it is critical that radiologists become familiar with the radiographic manifestations of IPMN-B in order to diagnosis these lesions at a time when surgical resection may be curative. Here we report a pathologically confirmed case of IPMN-B in a patient with chronic ulcerative colitis and subsequently discuss the main radiographic manifestations of this rare condition across multiple imaging modalities.
