| Core Tip |
The published data generally support the use of the minimally invasive approach for surgery on the pancreas. However, it has been under-utilized in the Caribbean because both minimally invasive surgery and service centralization for pancreatic surgery are in their infancy in the Caribbean. Only 3.25 Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomies are performed per annum across the entire region. In this paper we explore the obstacles to incorporating a minimally invasive service for pancreatic surgery. |
