How I do laparoscopic insulinoma enucleation. This article discusses a laparoscopic approach for insulinoma enucleation, an approach which offers all the advantages of a laparoscopic approach and which can also be adapted to other pancreatic lesions requiring enucleation.

NON-FUNCTIONING SPORADIC PANCREATIC NEUROENDOCRINE TUMOR IS AN INDEPENDENT RISK FACTOR FOR RECURRENCE AFTER SURGICAL TREATMENT.

Background: Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) are uncommon and heterogeneous neoplasms, often exhibiting indolent biological behavior. Their incidence is rising, largely due to the widespread use of high-resolution imaging techniques, particularly influencing the diagnosis of sporadic non-functioning tumors, which account for up to 80% of cases. While surgical resection remains the only curative option, the impact of factors such as tumor grade, size, and type on prognosis and recurrence is still unclear.

Even though insulinoma is the most frequent neuroendocrine tumor, it represents only 2% of pancreatic 2% of all pancreatic neoplasms. Diagnosis is relatively simple, and surgery after accurate determination of the tumors location within the pancreas is the cornerstone of its treatment. We herein report 4 patients undergoing various surgeries for benign secreting insulinomas, after extensive radiological and endoscopic exploration.

Introduction And Importance: Insulinomas are rare pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms with an incidence of one to four cases per million annually and a 5 % to 10 % association with hereditary multiple endocrine neoplasia type-1. While most insulinomas are benign and well-encapsulated, approximately 6 % may have malignant potential. Intraoperative localization remains a vital component of treatment, often facilitated by modern imaging techniques like intraoperative ultrasound and fluorescence modalities.

Benign, premalignant or low-grade malignant pancreatic tumors are increasingly diagnosed owing to the widespread uptake of cross-sectional imaging. Surgical excision is a potential treatment option for these tumors. Pancreatoduodenectomy and distal pancreatectomy are the standard resections for tumors located in the pancreatic head-neck or body-tail, respectively, and not uncommonly sacrifice a significant amount of healthy pancreatic parenchyma.

Article Synopsis
- - Functional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNET) require surgical removal, with enucleation being the top choice for small, well-differentiated tumors under 2 cm.
- - Insulinomas, a type of pNET, are ideal candidates for enucleation, but surgeries involving the uncinate process of the pancreas can be complex.
- - A video demonstrates a successful robotic-assisted enucleation of an insulinoma in a 41-year-old man, resulting in symptom relief and low post-operative complications.
