Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Laparoscopic and robotic surgery of the pancreas has only recently emerged as viable treatment options for benign and malignant disease. This review seeks to evaluate the current body of evidence on these approaches to pancreaticoduodenectomy and distal pancreatectomy. METHODS: A systematic review of large published series was performed utilizing the PubMed search engine. RESULTS: Based on these reports, both the laparoscopic and robotic techniques for these complex procedures appear to be safe and effective, if performed by high volume experienced pancreatic surgeons. The advantages of each approach are highlighted, emphasizing the data available on the learning curve and potential dissemination. CONCLUSIONS: Both minimally invasive approaches to pancreatic resection are safe and feasible.
