Laparoscopic radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy (RAMPS) showed significantly higher rates of R0 resection (91.7% vs. 69.2%) and similar intraoperative blood loss and operative time compared to laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy. Both procedures had similar perioperative complication rates. The study demonstrates that laparoscopic RAMPS is a safe and feasible approach with improved oncological outcomes for distal pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
