Abstract

We evaluated the clinical outcome and assessed the safety of robot-assisted distal pancreatectomy(RADP)of early 5 cases in our institutional introduction. We followed the guidelines for introduction of robot-assisted pancreatectomy proposed by Japanese Society of Endoscopic Surgery. Patients' characteristics were 2 men and 3 women, 45-79(median 52) years old, and 3 patients with neuroendocrine neoplasm, 1 with intraductal papillary neoplasm and 1 with mucinous cystic neoplasm. Spleen-preserving RADP was performed in 2 cases. Clinical outcomes of 5 cases underwent RADP were, operation time was 308-437(median 330)minutes, blood loss was 5-270(median 100)mL and none received transfusion. Postoperative pancreatic fistula and postoperative complication more than Grade Ⅲa(Clavien-Dindo classification)were none. Postoperative hospital stay was 7-11(median 8)days. RADP in our institution was safely introduced by following the proposal of guidelines.
