Robotic pancreas surgery for pancreatic cancer.
International Journal of Surgery 2023 November 22
Since the introduction of robotic pancreas surgery in the early 2000s, there has been significant increase in the adoption of the robot to perform complex pancreatic resections. However, utilization of the robot for pancreatic cancer has lagged behind due to concern for inferior oncologic outcomes. Furthermore, research in this field has previously been limited to small, single institution observational studies. Recent and ongoing randomized control trials in robotic distal pancreatectomy and robotic pancreatoduodenectomy have aimed to address concerns regarding the use of robotic techniques in pancreatic cancer. Together, these studies suggest similar, if not improved, outcomes with a robotic approach, including shorter hospital stays, expedited recovery with less post-operative complications, and equivalent resection rates, when compared to the standard open approaches. Additionally, surgical training in robotic pancreas surgery is of equal importance for patient safety. This review summarizes the available literature on the efficacy and safety of robotic pancreas surgery for pancreatic cancer, with specific focus on robotic distal pancreatectomy and robotic pancreatoduodenectomy.
