Minimally invasive spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy with Warshaw procedure (MI-WP), has gained widespread recognition for the treatment of benign and low-grade malignant tumors of the pancreatic body and tail. However, the comparative advantages of the robotic Warshaw procedure (R-WP) over the laparoscopic Warshaw procedure (L-WP) remain uncertain. This study aimed to compare the surgical outcomes between R-WP and L-WP.
Among the 146 cases of MI-DP conducted between October 2020 and December 2023 (L-DP:115, R-DP:31), 33 cases of MI-WP were subjected to analysis, comprising the R-WP group (n=10) and the L-WP group (n=23).
R-WP successfully completed all procedures under a purely laparoscopic approach, whereas L-WP necessitated conversion to open surgery in 2 cases (8.7%). Despite the significantly prolonged operative time in R-WP compared with L-WP (R-WP vs. L-WP: 421vs. 300 min), there was no significant difference in estimated blood loss between the 2 groups (R-WP vs. L-WP: 19 vs. 20 mL). Although the rate of major complications did not significantly differ between the 2 groups, 2 cases (8.7%) of L-WP required reoperation, including splenectomy in 1 instance. Furthermore, the incidence of postoperative splenic infarction was significantly higher in L-WP than in R-WP (R- vs. L-WP:0 vs. 43.5%, P =0.015). The length of hospital stay after surgery did not exhibit a significant difference between the 2 groups (R-WP vs. L-WP: 11 vs. 12 d).
R-WP demonstrated superiority to L-WP for reducing the incidence of postoperative splenic infarction, potentially contributing to enhancing the spleen preservation rate.
保留脾脏的胰体尾切除术联合 Warshaw 术(MI-WP)已广泛应用于胰腺体尾部良性及低级别恶性肿瘤的治疗。然而,机器人 Warshaw 术(R-WP)相较于腹腔镜 Warshaw 术(L-WP)的比较优势尚不确定。本研究旨在比较 R-WP 和 L-WP 的手术结果。
2020 年 10 月至 2023 年 12 月间,我们共开展了 146 例 MI-DP(L-DP:115 例,R-DP:31 例),其中 33 例行 MI-WP 分析,包括 R-WP 组(n=10)和 L-WP 组(n=23)。
R-WP 全部成功完成了纯腹腔镜下的手术,而 L-WP 中有 2 例(8.7%)需要中转开腹。虽然 R-WP 的手术时间明显长于 L-WP(R-WP 组 vs. L-WP 组:421 vs. 300 min),但两组间的估计出血量无明显差异(R-WP 组 vs. L-WP 组:19 vs. 20 ml)。虽然两组的主要并发症发生率无显著差异,但 L-WP 组有 2 例(8.7%)需要再次手术,其中 1 例为脾切除术。此外,L-WP 的术后脾梗死发生率明显高于 R-WP(R-WP 组 vs. L-WP 组:0 vs. 43.5%,P=0.015)。两组间术后住院时间无显著差异(R-WP 组 vs. L-WP 组:11 vs. 12 d)。
R-WP 较 L-WP 可降低术后脾梗死的发生率,有助于提高脾脏保留率。
