Although ICG-FA may be valuable in assessing anastomotic perfusion, reliable data on its use in pediatric gastrointestinal surgery is lacking. This systematic review analyzes whether
This article aims to analyze and to simplify the optimal dose and time of intravenous indocyanine green (ICG) administration to achieve the identification of the cystic duct and the common bile duct (CBD).
In hepatobiliary surgery, intra-operative indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging use started in the late 2000s with Japanese surgical teams and is now gaining popularity among surgeons all over the world to improve accuracy and safety of surgical procedures.
Ureteral stenosis and urinary leakage are relevant problems after kidney transplantation. A standardized definition of ureterovesical anastomosis complications after kidney transplantation has not yet been established

Radical resection for cancer of the splenic flexure requires careful consideration of the dissection line so that blood flow in the remnant bowel is maintained, particularly when the root of the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) is already occluded.
ICG fluorescence method can evaluate the presence or absence of bile leakage from the hepatic dissection and the running of the bile duct on the inner wall of the cyst, and is considered to contribute to safer laparoscopic liver cyst fenestration.
ICG PDR could be used in the donors as a filter to discard poor-quality grafts before procurement and, in the early post-transplant phase, to predict EAD
Distinguishing between partial-thickness burns and full-thickness burns indicates the critical decision making related to whether a patient can be allowed to heal on their own or if the wound should be surgically excised and replaced with a graft
The current gold-standard for axillary staging in patients with breast cancer is sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) using radio-guided surgery with radioisotope technetium (99mTc), sometimes combined with blue dye. A promising alternative is fluorescent imaging using indocyanine green (ICG).
To compare indocyanine green dye fluorescence cholangiography (ICG-FC) with intra-operative cholangiography (IOC) in minimal access cholecystectomy for visualization of the extrahepatic biliary tree.
The use of near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging with indocyanine green (ICG) has gained popularity in many fields in adult surgery, such as sentinel lymph node mapping, intra-operative solid tumor identification, and organ perfusion assessment.
A consecutive case series of supraclavicular artery island flaps was designed using indocyanine green angiography (IcG-A) in head and neck reconstruction to demonstrate its utilization in supraclavicular artery island flap (SCAIF) head and neck reconstruction.
Although the pectoralis major myocutaneous (PMMC) flap is among the useful reconstructive materials following oral cancer ablation, this flap has an unstable blood circulation that could result in partial necrosis of the skin paddle.
We performed a retrospective comparative analysis of 33 patients undergoing secondary breast surgery between 2018 and 2021 by a single surgeon (M.S.).
Extended right posterior sectionectomy is an alternative to right hepatectomy (RH) for tumors located mainly in the right posterior section (RPS) and partially in the right anterior section (RAS)
Anastomotic leakage (AL) is the most feared complication in colorectal surgery and preventing this serious morbidity is a primary goal. Although the etiology of AL is multifactorial, three categories of risk factors can be identified.
Attending the European Society of Surgical Oncology – then do meet with us in the Exhibit Hall or attend the workshop we are sponsoring on Friday 21st Oct, Amphitheatre C 11.30-13.00 on Image Guided Surgery using Fluorescence.
The variant terminal trunk of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) could be confused with the ileocolic artery (ICA) as it runs on the right side of the superior mesenteric vein.
In recent da Vinci robot systems (Intuitive Surgical), near-infrared fluorescence imaging (Firefly technology) has been used. With this technique, it is possible for surgeons to see important structures well beyond the limits of their eyes
With vocal cord palsy, hypoparathyroidism is one of the two major complications after thyroid surgery. Traditional approaches to preserving the parathyroid glands during thyroid surgery include identifying the glands precisely and preserving their vasculature with the naked eye, which mainly depend on the experience and skill of the surgeon
