The aim of this book is to present the primary minimally invasive approach to pancreatoduodenectomy for cancer. This technique has been gaining interest in recent years, with an increasing number of surgeons seeking training from experienced practitioners. The book includes a step-by-step description of each stage, accompanied by original laparoscopic and robotic images and videos. HPB surgeons interested in this technique may find these pages, written in collaboration with some of the world's leading experts, highly informative and valuable.
