Pancreatic fistulas following distal pancreatectomy are unrelated to the texture quality of the pancreas.

Langenbeck's archives of surgery
PURPOSE: The relevance of pancreatic texture for pancreatic fistula (POPF) formation after distal pancreatectomy (DP) remains ill defined. Recent POPF definition adjustments and common subjective pancreatic texture assessment are further drawbacks in...

Safety and efficacy of robot-assisted versus open pancreaticoduodenectomy: a meta-analysis of multiple worldwide centers.

Updates in surgery
The objective of the study is to compare the safety and efficacy of robot-assisted pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) with open PD. The PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library databases were searched for the literature available from their respective inception...

Robot-assisted combined pancreatectomy/hepatectomy for metastatic pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma: case report and review of the literature.

Clinical journal of gastroenterology
Acinar cell carcinoma (ACC) of the pancreas is a rare neoplasm with less aggressive behavior than ductal carcinoma. As a result, surgical resection for metastatic ACC is a therapeutic option which can result in long-term survival. There is a paucity ...

Distal pancreatectomy with en-bloc celiac axis resection (DP-CAR) through retroperitoneal-first laparoscopic approach (Retlap): A novel strategy for achieving accurate evaluation of resectability and minimal invasiveness.

Surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: Distal pancreatectomy with en-bloc celiac axis resection (DP-CAR) for borderline resectable pancreatic body cancer is increasingly being performed [1,2]. For survival benefits, obtaining margin-free resection (R0 resection) is crucial [3]...

Safety and feasibility of the robotic platform in the management of surgical sequelae of chronic pancreatitis.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND/AIM: The application of minimally invasive surgery to chronic pancreatitis (CP) procedures is uncommon. Our objective was to report the safety and feasibility of the robotic approach in the treatment of surgical sequelae of CP, and provide...

Improved perioperative outcomes of laparoscopic distal pancreatosplenectomy: modified lasso technique.

ANZ journal of surgery
BACKGROUND: Simultaneous division of the splenic artery, splenic vein and pancreatic parenchyma during laparoscopic distal pancreatosplenectomy (LDPS) is known as the lasso technique, which is considered to be simple to perform. However, the original...

Computer-assisted cytologic diagnosis in pancreatic FNA: An application of neural networks to image analysis.

Cancer cytopathology
BACKGROUND: Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy is an accurate method for the diagnosis of solid pancreatic masses. However, a significant number of cases still pose a diagnostic challenge. The authors have attempted to design a computer model to aid...
