简要总结
Achievement of critical view of safety (CVS) is recommended to reduce risk of hilar injury in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence cholangiography, a novel technique of real time biliary visualization, is postulated to assist dissection during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). However, its use in providing a faster and safer LC has yet to be established. The main objective of this study is to evaluate whether the use of ICG enhanced fluorescence cholangiography will help in earlier identification critical view of safety during LC.
详细描述
Indocyanine green (ICG) is excreted exclusively in the biliary system and emits fluorescence light when viewed using near infrared imaging. This enables extrahepatic biliary tree anatomy to be delineated during laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Indocyanine green fluorescence cholangiography also enables earlier detection of cystic duct and common bile duct during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This is reported in two studies which showed that cystic duct can be identified 11 minutes and 8.6 minutes earlier and common bile duct 10 and 11 minutes earlier than white light imaging.
To date, there is no data published on the use of fluorescent cholangiography in reducing operative time of identification of critical view of safety during laparoscopic cholecystectomy, which is an integral part of the surgery. Theoretically achievement of critical view of safety maybe facilitated by fluorescent cholangiography as this technique facilitates identification of biliary structures.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate whether an earlier identification of CVS can be obtained by using ICG fluorescence cholangiography as an adjunct to conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy versus conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Secondary outcomes assessed are the presence of minor or major complications between this two groups.
Patients are randomly assigned into two arms; ICG fluorescence cholangiography assisted laparoscopic cholecystectomy (ICGFC- LC) and conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC), using a computer-generated block randomization. Patients in the ICGFC- LC group received intravenous bolus of 2.5mg of ICG before the induction of anaesthesia. All the surgeries are performed using standard four ports technique. Near infrared light camera by Karl Storz Endoscopy is used intermittently during dissection for the ICGFC-LC group.
