Excerpt

Minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy (MIDP), consisting of both laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (LDP) and robot-assisted distal pancreatectomy (RDP), is considered the preferable approach for benign lesions of the pancreatic body and tail, as also supported by two randomized trials.1,2 Lately, the indications of MIDP are broadening to malignant lesions3 and the use of the robot-assisted approach is emerging. Although several retrospective studies have compared LDP and open distal pancreatectomy (ODP) in patients with pancreatic cancer,4 studies assessing the safety and efficacy of RDP and LDP in patients with left-sided pancreatic cancer are lacking. …
