| Popis: | Background:. Minimally invasive pancreatic surgery (MIPS) has developed over the last 3 decades and is nowadays experiencing an increased interest from the surgical community. With increasing awareness of both the public and the surgical community on patient safety, optimization of training has gained importance. For implementation of MIPS we propose 3 training phases. The first phase focuses on developing basic skills and procedure specific skills with the help of simulation, biotissue drills, video libraries, live case observations, and training courses. The second phase consists of index procedures, fellowships, and proctoring programs to ensure patient safety during the first procedures. During the third phase the surgeons aim is to safely implement the procedure into standard practice while minimizing learning curve related excess morbidity and mortality. Case selection, skills assessment, feedback, and mentoring are important methods to optimize this phase. The residual learning curve can reach up to 100 cases depending on the surgeons’ previous experience, selection of cases, and definition of the parameters used to assess the learning curve. Adequate training and high procedural volume are key to implementing MIPS safely. |
