Liver resection is indicated for resectable liver metastases of neuroendocrine tumors. Minimally invasive liver resection offers decreased blood loss, reduces pain, reduces postoperative complications, and reduces time to functional recovery.
Bile leakage (BL) after hepatectomy cannot always be detected with conventional methods; moreover, BL cannot be completely prevented. Recently, navigation procedures with indocyanine green (ICG) have been reported. Furthermore, we previously reported the possibility of detecting BLs with high sensitivity during hepatectomy by administering ICG into the bloodstream, which is quickly excreted in the bile.
Evaluating the results of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) using indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence. This is a cross-sectional study of patients with LC using real-time fluorescent ICG to treat gallbladder disease from May 2021 to May 2022 in the 108 Military Central Hospital.
Criteria for donation have been expanded to meet the great demand for organ transplant, resulting in different tools and classifications to help physicians to better assess the quality of the transplanted kidney.
For endoscopic endonasal surgery of pituitary tumors, tissue identification, and intraoperative judgment depend largely on the surgeons’ expertise.
Introduction and aims: An anastomotic leak is one of the most dreaded complications in colorectal surgery because it increases postoperative morbidity and mortality. The aim
Remnant gastric ischemia is the most significant complication in distal pancreatectomy (DP) after distal gastrectomy (DG). Some studies have reported the safety of asynchronous DP
During a laparoscopic cholecystectomy, the critical view of safety is obtained through dissection of the gallbladder from the liver until there is anterior and posterior visualization of the cystic duct and cystic artery.
An introduction to fluorescence guided surgery. This video provides a basic introduction to how fluorescence imaging works. It addresses common features and limitations of fluorescence
The global and precise follow-up of uveitis has become possible with the availability of dual fluorescein (FA) and indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) since the mid-1990s.
Most of the available evidence on the use of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence in clinical practice consists of articles published by surgeons of the Asian-Pacific area.
Methods: An expert panel of surgeons has been selected and invited to participate to this project. Systematic reviews of the PubMed, Embase and Cochrane libraries
To investigate angiographic characteristic features of diabetic choroidopathy
Indocyanine green (ICG) is one of the only clinically approved near-infrared (NIR) fluorophores used during fluorescence-guided surgery (FGS), but it lacks tumor specificity for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC)
A man in his 70s underwent an endovascular aneurysm repair(EVAR)for abdominal aortic aneurysm. Blood test revealed an anemia and an increased tumor marker. Enhanced computed tomography revealed the wall thickening in the sigmoid colon and the Type Ⅱ endoleak after EVAR.
Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are rare malignant tumors often associated with poor outcomes and high local recurrence rates. Current tools for intraoperative and definitive margin assessment include intraoperative frozen section and permanent pathology, respectively.
8th congress of ISFGS taking place in Miami Feb 20-21st
Indocyanine green (ICG) is one of the only clinically approved near-infrared (NIR) fluorophores used during fluorescence-guided surgery (FGS), but it lacks tumor specificity for pancreatic
Severe mitral (MR) and tricuspid regurgitation (TR) aggravate hemodynamic stress leading to congestive heart failure (HF) with impaired hepatic function, also known as cardio-hepatic syndrome
Although laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) has been standard of care for symptomatic gallstone disease for almost 30 years, the use of routine intraoperative cholangiogram (IOC) remains
Recurrence of liver cancers after liver resection (LR), such as recurrences of hepatocellular carcinoma and colorectal liver metastases, is often treated with repeat LR (RLR) as the only curative treatment.
