Area of Science:

Surgical Oncology
Minimally Invasive Surgery
Robotic Surgery

Background:

Robotic surgery has advanced minimally invasive techniques in pancreatic surgery over the past 20 years.
Robotic distal pancreatectomy and pancreaticoduodenectomy are increasingly utilized procedures.

Purpose of the Study:

To survey the current literature on robotic pancreatectomy.
To detail the approach for oncologic pancreatic resection using robotic assistance.

Main Methods:

Literature review of robotic pancreatectomy studies.
Analysis of perioperative outcomes and oncologic equivalence.

Main Results:

Robotic pancreatic surgery is technically feasible and safe.
Oncologic outcomes are equivalent to open surgery.
Improved perioperative results are associated with the robotic approach.

Conclusions:

Robotic pancreatectomy represents a viable and effective alternative to open surgery.
The adoption of robotic systems enhances minimally invasive pancreatic cancer resections.
