Danilo Coco, Silvana Leanza

The results of meta-analytic review that compared Laparoscopic Distal Pancreatectomy (LDP) versus Robotic Distal Pancreatectomy (RDP) demonstrated the safety and feasibility of the robotic approach. The studies comparison showed no differences in postoperative complications, 30-day mortality, ICU stay, conversion rate, pancreatic fistula,morbidity and mortality rate between the LPD group and the RDP group.
