This study aimed to characterize intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct (IPNB) in patients undergoing initial and recurrent surgical resection and to evaluate the appropriateness of surgical treatment strategies. This study included 14 patients who underwent liver resection for intrahepatic IPNB. We assessed intraoperative and postoperative clinicopathological factors in patients undergoing both initial and recurrent surgeries. Four patients experienced recurrence after initial surgery; all underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy. Postoperative complications were classified as Clavien-Dindo Grade 1-2 in three patients and Grade IIIb in one patient. There were no in-hospital deaths. Pancreaticoduodenectomy for recurrent cases following hepatectomy for IPNB is considered safe within an acceptable range and contributes to a favorable long-term prognosis.
