摘要：Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNET) comprise up to 10% of all pancreatic solid tumors. There has been much interest in recent years with regards to the role of limited resection and enucleation procedures for this entity. There is no clear guideline today on the optimal type choice of surgery for this condition, with even fewer reporting on the use of a robotic approach for pancreatic uncinate lesions. We describe a case report of a 54-year-old lady who underwent successful robotic enucleation of pancreatic uncinate neuroendocrine tumor. This patient's recovery was complicated by pancreatitis and a peripancreatic collection, both of which resolved without surgical re-intervention. A literature review was performed with regards to current guidelines on management of PNETs, comparisons between demolitive and parenchymal-preserving procedures, and recent developments in the laparoscopic and robotic approaches for this condition. There is no clear guideline on the optimal type and approach (open vs. laparoscopic vs. robotic) to the surgical management of PNET. We document in this case report a novel approach of robotic enucleation of pancreatic uncinate process NET, that could be considered as an alternative to open/laparoscopic demolitive procedures for small uncinate tumors..
