    Abstract The implementation of robotic surgery in the field of hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) has been a slow but significant process. HPB procedures offer a unique challenge when for new technologies, as the surgeries themselves are complex, with long learning curves. Yet the benefits of the robotic approach for this patient population are notable: decreased length of stay, blood loss, postoperative complications, and improving quality of life. The use of robotic simulation focused curriculum plays a crucial role in mentoring experienced surgeons and surgical trainees. Although further study remains, early studies suggest a structured simulation curriculum decreases time, technical errors, and improves proficiency, ultimately leading to a more expedited and safe implementation of robotic techniques in the HPB field.

    Abstract Three recent advances in the surgical approach to pancreatic cancer over the past decade have improved both short- and long-term outcomes for patients with nonmetastatic, operable pancreatic cancer. These include (1) minimally invasive pancreatectomy to reduce operative morbidity while adhering to principles of open oncologic resections, (2) neoadjuvant chemotherapy to treat radiographically occult metastatic disease and improve locoregional control, and (3) applying irreversible electroporation as an adjunct to surgery, allowing a fraction of locally advanced pancreatic cancer to be resected.

  8. Article ; Online: Robotic Cyst Gastrostomy and Roux-en-Y Cyst Jejunostomy for a Bilobed Walled-Off Pancreatic Necroma.

    Abstract Background: Walled-off pancreatic necrosis (WON) represents delayed sequelae of necrotizing pancreatitis, generally developing in 5-15% of cases 4 weeks after the initial attack (Boškoski and Costamagna Ann Gastroenterol 27(2):93-94, 2014). They are characterized by a well-circumscribed, encapsulated collection of necrotic parenchyma with variable degree of gland liquefaction (Boškoski and Costamagna Ann Gastroenterol 27(2):93-94, 2014, Khreiss et al. J Gastrointest Surg 19(8):1441-1448, 2015). Although a significant number of WONs are asymptomatic and resolve spontaneously, some will ultimately require endoscopic or surgical intervention (Costa et al. Br J Surg 101(1):e65-e79, 2014). In this video, we demonstrate a robotic cyst gastrostomy and Roux-en-Y cyst jejunostomy performed for two simultaneous and complex WONs.
    Methods: A 71-year-old female presented with a history of drug-induced necrotizing pancreatitis 2 years prior to surgical referral. This was complicated by the development of two separate WONs in the head and the body of the pancreas measuring 6.5 × 6.5 cm and 9.7 × 7.3 cm respectively, with significant necrotic debris. Due to the continued growth of both WONs and progressive discomfort, the decision was made to pursue simultaneous internal surgical drainage of both lesions using a minimally invasive approach. The procedure was performed using the DaVinci Si HD robotic Surgical System (Intuitive Surgical Inc.) and lasted 180 min with a total blood loss of approximately 25 ml. A cyst gastrostomy and a Roux-en-Y cyst jejunostomy were performed for the body and head WONs respectively following debridement of the necrotic tissue. The patient tolerated the procedure well, had an uneventful postoperative course, and was discharged on post-operative day 7.
    Conclusion: This case demonstrates that the robotic approach can be a safe and effective modality for the management of technically challenging and complex WONs. Although endoscopic or video-assisted retroperitoneal drainage procedures are alternative treatment modalities for WON, the complexity and size of this bilobed WON, coupled to the significant amount of necrotic debris and the need for a concomitant cholecystectomy, made this case ideal for internal surgical drainage via the robotic approach, since it allowed for definitive treatment with fewer reinterventions (Khreiss et al. J Gastrointest Surg 19(8):1441-1448, 2015).

    Abstract Background: Robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy (RPD) is performed for resectable periampullary lesions with comparable outcomes to the open approach.1 Surgical therapy for borderline-resectable (BR) pancreatic tumors is technically challenging and poses a significant risk of bleeding and positive margins.2 As experience with RPD grows at high-volume centers, case selection can be carefully expanded to include complex vascular resections.3 We demonstrate a RPD performed for BR pancreatic adenocarcinoma with portal vein (PV) involvement and presence of anomalous hepatic arterial anatomy.
    Methods: A 75-year-old female presented with abdominal pain and obstructive jaundice. She was previously healthy and had a relatively normal body mass index (25.7 kg/m
    Conclusion: In high-volume centers, the robotic approach can be safely used in selected cases of technically challenging BR pancreatic head cancers.
