Overview

Introduction: Minimally-invasive surgical methods have been becoming ever more common also in the segment of pancreatic surgery. The aim of this paper was to analyze the current state of minimally-invasive surgery in the Czech Republic and the justification and potential of implementing such procedures.

Methods: Analysis of high volume centers using healthcare providers´ and payers´ data.

Results: Thirteen pancreatic surgical centers meet the proposed criteria for being called a high volume center – a center of highly specialized care in pancreatic surgery based on the annual number of at least 17 major resections of the pancreas. According to data from healthcare payers, laparoscopy was used in 0.6%−65.7% of procedures in individual centers. However, these are not resection procedures. The centers themselves report a significantly smaller number of minimally-invasive pancreatic resection procedures. The actual numbers of minimally-invasive resection procedures in the current system are practically impossible to verify. The potential for implementing minimally-invasive pancreatic surgery in the Czech Republic can be estimated based on the identification of candidate patients.

Conclusion: Due to the fragmentation of this operative segment, its costs and small numbers of patients suitable for minimally-invasive pancreatic surgery even among high volume centers, the implementation rate of these methods is very slow. The need to centralize this segment of care appears to be very urgent from all points of view.
