Abstract
The evolution of the robotic platform has made it feasible to perform complex operations in a minimally invasive fashion. The pancreaticoduodenectomy is one of the most complex operations, and its performance with the robotic technique has been achieved so far in very few high-volume academic centers. It is still unclear what is generally required to adopt such advanced techniques to perform efficient and safe hepatobiliary surgery. In the present chapter, we describe our experience, at a tertiary university hospital, on the implementation of the robotic technique in pancreaticoduodenectomy.
