Abstract:
The application of function‑preserving pancreatic surgery as a restrictive resection technique is primarily targeted towards benign or those with borderline or low‑grade lesions. This approach has been shown to significantly improve both short‑term and long‑term quality of life outcomes for patients following surgical intervention. In comparison to conventional laparoscopic procedures, robotic surgical systems have demonstrated superior efficacy and precision when employed in pancreas surgeries, and the safety and reliability are widely recognized within the medical community. Nevertheless, there remains a dearth of research investigating the specific appli-cations of robotic‑assisted function‑preserving pancreatic surgery. Consequently, the authors compre-hensive review the latest progress on robot‑assisted function‑preserving pancreatic surgery, while highlighting of surgical scope, techniques utilized during these procedures as well as associated prognostic considerations.
