Successful Robotic Ultrasound-Guided Central Pancreatectomy for Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm

A parenchymal-sparing central pancreatectomy was performed with robotic assistance and intraoperative endoscopic evaluation of the main pancreatic duct. The procedure had a relatively short operative time of 290 minutes and minimal blood loss. Despite a postoperative complication requiring angioembolization and drainage, the patient was discharged on day 22 with good long-term outcomes, demonstrating the effectiveness of combining robotic surgery with ultrasound guidance for challenging pancreatic resections.
