Article Synopsis
  • - The study compares the outcomes of robot-assisted and laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy across 50 European centers, focusing on major morbidity and mortality rates among patients from 2009 to 2020.
  • - The results show no significant differences in major morbidity and 30-day mortality rates between the two surgical methods, but robot-assisted surgery had lower conversion rates and better lymph node retrieval.
  • - Laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy had advantages like shorter operation times and lower rates of postoperative pancreatic complications, suggesting it may be the preferable approach in certain aspects.

Objective: To assess postoperative 90-day outcomes after minimally invasive (laparoscopic/robot-assisted) total pancreatectomy (MITP) in selected patients versus open total pancreatectomy (OTP) among European centers.

Background: Minimally invasive pancreatic surgery is becoming increasingly popular but data on MITP are scarce and multicenter studies comparing outcomes versus OTP are lacking. It therefore remains unclear if MITP is a valid alternative.

Introduction: There are limited numbers of high-volume centers performing minimally invasive pancreatoduodenectomy (MIPD) routinely. Several approaches to MIPD have been described. Aim of this analysis was to show the learning curve of three different approaches to MIPD.

Introduction: Laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy (LPD) remains one of the most challenging minimal invasive operations today.

Patients And Methods: Between January 2007 and December 2016, 197 patients were scheduled for LPD but 162 patients (from January 2007 to July 2016) were analysed in this cohort series.

Results: Total LPD concerned for 162 patients (five patients did not undergo PD and 12 underwent conversion): standard LPD in 104 patients (66%), and laparoscopic pylorus-preserving PD in 41 patients (26%).

Background: Laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy (LPD) with concomitant resection of major portal vessels has recently emerged as feasible and safe, with similar morbidity and mortality as well as oncologic outcome compared with patients undergoing open PD with major vascular resection.

Materials And Methods: Of a consecutive series of 133 LPD, eight patients underwent concomitant superior mesenteric vein/portal vein (SMV/PV) resection and reconstruction with the intent of achieving a R0 resection.

Results: Four of these eight patients had tangential resection followed by lateral wall repair with Prolene 4.
