Since its inception laparoscopy has been a valuable tool for diagnosis, and more recently it has become widely accepted as a medium for surgical intervention. In this light, the addition of minimally invasive techniques to the management of peripancreatic cancer has gained notable attention. Although most practitioners agree that there is some role for minimally invasive therapy, opinions vary as to the extent and significance these applications carry to the overall management of peripancreatic malignancies.
