In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Pancreatic surgery, specifically pancreatoduodenectomy (PD), is a complex procedure often required for patients with pancreatic or other periampullary cancers. In recent years, minimally invasive techniques have become more popular, especially robotic-assisted surgery. However, there are limited studies comparing robotic surgery to traditional open surgery. This is a national, multicenter study in Spain comparing the outcomes of robotic versus open pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). The main goal is to assess complications within 90 days after surgery. This study is important because it will provide evidence on which approach is safer and more effective for patients. The study follows a \*\*prospective, randomized, and multicenter design\*\*, meaning patients are assigned to either robotic or open surgery randomly, and multiple hospitals are involved. The study will include all eligible patie
