Oncologic Outcomes After Robotic Pancreatic Resections Are Not Inferior to Open Surgery

Objective: Compare oncologic outcomes after open and robotic pancreatic resections for pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Summary of Background Data: Receipt of adjuvant chemotherapy improves survival after resected PDAC. Complications after pancreatectomy have been shown to prohibit the administration of adjuvant chemotherapy and survival. We examined the effect of surgical approach on receipt of adjuvant chemotherapy, complications, and overall...
