BackgroundMachine learning (ML) is an inquiry domain that aims to establish methodologies that leverage information to enhance performance of various applications. In the healthcare domain, the ML concept has gained prominence over the years. As a result, the adoption of ML algorithms has become expansive. The aim of this scoping review is to evaluate the application of ML in pancreatic surgery.MethodsWe integrated the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses for scoping reviews. Articles that contained relevant data specializing in ML in pancreas surgery were included.ResultsA search of the following four databases PubMed, Cochrane, EMBASE, and IEEE and files adopted from Google and Google Scholar was 21. The main features of included studies revolved around the year of publication, the country, and the type of article. Additionally, all the included articles were published within January 2019 to May 2022.ConclusionThe integration of ML in pancreas surgery has gained much attention in previous years. The outcomes derived from this study indicate an extensive literature gap on the topic despite efforts by various researchers. Hence, future studies exploring how pancreas surgeons can apply different learning algorithms to perform essential practices may ultimately improve patient outcomes.
