Robotic Left Pancreatectomy with Perirenal Tissue Excision and Left Adrenalectomy (Posterior Ramps) for Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Abutting the Adrenal Gland.

The robotic platform is routinely employed in pancreatic surgery. Thanks to its increased degree of movement, its dexterity, and the magnification, this approach can help surgeons with vascular identification and control, in performing extended lymphadenectomies, and finding the correct planes of dissection. All these elements are crucial in a well-performed posterior RAMPS.
