ampullary cancer

K = cancer

"Ampullary cancer is a rare type of cancer. It’s when cancer starts in the part of the body called the ampulla of Vater. The ampulla of Vater is a small opening where the pancreatic and bile ducts (from the liver) connect to the first part of the small intestine (the duodenum). There they ducts release their secretions into the intestines.
Ampullary cancer may also be called ampulla of Vater cancer."

Reference:

ampulla of Vater

From Wikipedia: "The ampulla of Vater, also known as the hepatopancreatic ampulla or the hepatopancreatic duct, is formed by the union of the pancreatic duct and the common bile duct. The ampulla is specifically located at the major duodenal papilla."

The Italian writer misspelled Vater.
