Abstract

PURPOSE: Single-incision laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy has not been widely applied due to technical challenges and increased operative risks. The newly released da Vinci SP system has been introduced to overcome these limitations and offer improvements for established robotic single-site procedures. We report our experience of robotic single port plus one port distal pancreatectomy using the da Vinci SP system.
