“…Our findings are consistent with data from smaller series that have noted an incidence of lymph node metastasis of 20% to 25% for patients with T1-T2 disease. 30 In aggregate, these data strongly suggest that even patients with early invasive adenocarcinoma of the ampulla have a high risk of lymph node metastasis and are best served with an operation that includes lymph node dissection and clearance.…”
