Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate how operative time interacts with outcomes among different approaches to pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Minimally invasive PDs (MIPD), which include laparoscopic (LPD) and robotic (RPD) approaches, are increasingly performed in the USA. MIPD are generally associated with longer operative times (OT) compared to open PD (OPD). Increased OT is associated with inferior outcomes for OPD; however, the effect of OT on MIPD is not well understood.
