RESUMEN
We demonstrate robot-assisted treatment of a patient with benign pancreatic insulinoma. A 31-year-old patient suffered from attacks of weakness, numbness of the fingertips and «turbidity of consciousness¼ for 2 years. These symptoms occurred on an empty stomach and regressed after eating. We found pancreatic insulinoma. The patient underwent robotic enucleation of pancreatic tumor. Surgery time was 145 min. Postoperative period proceeded without complications. Hyperglycemia up to 10.5 mmol/l on the first postoperative day was followed by normalization after 4 days. The patient was discharged in 6 days after surgery. Minimally invasive robotic enucleation of insulinoma minimizes surgical trauma and provides precise resection of tumor. The key aspect of safe enucleation is localization of tumor at a distance of at least 2 mm from the pancreatic duct.
