Right lateral approach to the superior mesenteric artery in robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy

Riki Ninomiya et al. J Hepatobiliary Pancreat Sci. 2023 Nov.

Abstract

Ninomiya and colleagues introduced a novel approach to the superior mesenteric artery in robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy. The right lateral approach allows repositioning of the superior mesenteric artery to the right-most surface, facilitating safer artery division and simplifying detachment around the superior mesenteric vein, potentially reducing operative time and minimizing blood loss.

Keywords: Whipple; pancreatectomy; pancreaticoduodenectomy; robot-assisted surgery; robotic pancreatoduodenectomy.
