Image-guided minimally invasive endopancreatic surgery (EPS) successfully targeted hidden pancreatic lesions in a model. This computer-assisted navigation system improves spatial orientation for complex pancreatic procedures.

Area of Science:

  • Minimally invasive surgery
  • Medical imaging
  • Surgical navigation

Background:

  • Endopancreatic surgery (EPS) is an experimental technique for benign pancreatic diseases.
  • Spatial orientation challenges limit current EPS.
  • This study explored image-guided EPS using computer-assisted navigation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the feasibility of image-guided EPS.
  • To evaluate the benefits of computer-assisted navigation in EPS.
  • To improve targeting of pancreatic lesions during minimally invasive surgery.

Main Methods:

  • Surgical navigation system with 3D CT reconstruction was used.
  • Evaluated surface and intraparenchymal landmark registration accuracy (FRE).
  • Targeted intrapancreatic lesions in pancreas silicon models using image-guided EPS.

Main Results:

  • Intraparenchymal landmark registration was more accurate than surface registration.
  • Image-guided EPS successfully targeted 6 out of 7 lesions.
  • Median distance from resection cavity to lesion center was 1.52 mm.

Conclusions:

  • Image-guided minimally invasive EPS can target lesions not visible endoscopically.
  • Computer-assisted navigation enhances precision in pancreatic surgery.
  • This tool may facilitate complex minimally invasive and robotic pancreatic procedures.
