Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of robotic surgery for pancreatic serous cystadenoma.
Methods There were 148 patients with pancreatic serous cystadenoma underwent robotic surgery from April 2015 to June 2019 in our department, the clinical data including intraoperative data, perioperative complications, and histopathological results were retrospectively analyzed.
Results Among the 148 patients, there were 39 cases (26.4%) of the tumors located in pancreatic head, 15 cases (10.1%) in pancreatic neck and 94 cases (63.5%) in pancreatic body and tail. Pancreaticoduodenectomy, distal pancreatectomy, central pancreatectomy, and enucleation were performed in 26 cases (17.6%), 71 cases (48.0%), 24 cases (16.2%) and 27 (18.2%) cases, respectively. The incidence of serious postoperative complications were 7.7%, 2.8%, 0, 0, respectively, and grade B pancreatic fistula were 7.7%, 7.0%, 41.7%, 14.8%, respectively. 90-day mortality was 0. Compared with pancreaticoduodenectomy, enucleation of the pancreatic head tumor had shorter operation time (P<0.001), less intraoperative blood loss (P<0.001), and shorter length of hospital stay (P<0.001). Compared with central pancreatectomy+pancreaticojejunostomy, Rong central pancreatectomy had shorter operation time (P=0.007) and length of hospital stay (P=0.040).
Conclusion Robotic surgery for pancreatic serous cystadenomaisis safe and feasible. Rong central pancreatectomy for serous cystadenoma in middle segmental pancreas could achieve feasible results.
