Traditionally, bariatric surgeries have been categorized into hypoabsorptive, restrictive, or hybrid approaches. However, these classifications inadequately reflect the complex anatomical and physiological alterations associated with modern surgical methodologies. This paper explores the evolution of metabolic surgeries, emphasizing the integration of physiological concepts into classic procedures to provide more tailored and effective treatment options for obesity and its comorbidities. Finally, the proposal for a new classification based on current metabolic concepts will facilitate communication among patients, doctors, and healthcare professionals. Additionally, it will enable a more didactic and standardized approach to data collection for conducting studies and publications.展开更多

Methods: This study is a prospective controlled trial that selected patients undergoing two-port thoracoscopic valve surgery at a certain hospital from January 2019 to December 2024. Patients were randomly assigned to the control group and the negative pressure group using a random number table method. The control group consisted of 30 patients (20 males, 10 females, mean age 42.03 ± 12.89 years), and the negative pressure group consisted of 35 patients (26 males, 9 females, mean age 41.84 ± 11.83 years). The control group received traditional chest drainage, while the negative pressure group received negative pressure chest drainage. Postoperative pain scores, hospital stay, drainage time, number of tube blockages, and incidences of pneumothorax or subcutaneous emphysema were recorded and statistically analyzed. Results: The negative pressure group had a significantly shorter postoperative drainage time compared to the control group (49.09 ± 11.99 hours vs. 79.10 ± 7.32 hours, P < 0.001). The postoperative pain score was lower in the negative pressure group (4.49 ± 1.27 vs. 7.03 ± 0.85, P < 0.001), and the hospital stay was significantly shorter (9.83 ± 1.69 days vs. 14.73 ± 2.32 days, P < 0.001). The incidence of pneumothorax or subcutaneous emphysema was significantly lower in the negative pressure group than in the control group (14.29% vs. 56.67%, P = 0.0003). Conclusion: The application of negative pressure chest drainage in patients after two-port thoracoscopic valve surgery can effectively reduce postoperative pain, shorten hospital stay, and lower the incidence of tube blockage and pneumothorax, demonstrating good clinical outcomes.展开更多

文摘Chronic pain after spine surgery(CPSS)is a complex disorder characterized by multifactorial pathogenesis that occurs in 8%–40%of patients undergoing lumbar spine surgery.We aimed to develop a rat model that mimics clinical CPSS conditions by taking two sequential surgical procedures.Step 1:A plastic rod was inserted into the left L5 intervertebral foramen to produce a steady compression on the dorsal root ganglion(DRG)and the spinal nerve,a common cause of low back pain(LBP).Step 2:The rod was removed after 7 days when rats exhibited mechanical and heat hypersensitivity in the ipsilateral hindpaw,followed by a full L5 laminectomy to mimic spine decompression surgery in LBP patients.The retention of the rod induced a prolonged LBP-like behavior but was quickly resolved after rod removal without laminectomy.However,rats that received laminectomy after rod removal developed heightened mechanical and heat sensitivity in the hindpaw,impaired gait,and reduced spontaneous exploration activity,indicating CPSS.Patch clamp recording revealed a significant augmentation in the intrinsic excitability of smalldiameter DRG neurons in CPSS rats.Administration of Dermorphin[D-Arg2,Lys4](1–4)amide(DALDA,5mg/kg,i.p.),a peripherally acting mu-opioid receptor(MOR)-preferred agonist,attenuated pain hypersensitivity,capsaicin-induced[Ca^(2+)]i rising and the increased intrinsic excitability of DRG neurons from CPSS rats.Our findings suggest that this new model,which mirrors the nature of CPSS developed in patients,may be useful for future studies of the underlying mechanisms.
文摘BACKGROUND Although the 2021 Chinese Clinical Practice Guidelines for Enhanced Recovery after Surgery(ERAS)provide recommendations for ERAS in gastrointestinal surgery,the clinical application of standard ERAS nursing models is challenging due to the variety of diseases involved in gastrointestinal surgery and the com-plex factors contributing to patient stress responses.Moreover,stress responses are more severe in older adult patients.Therefore,precision medicine is required to improve the quality of nursing care and promote postoperative recovery in gastrointestinal surgery.and demonstrate nursing benefits through clinical practice.METHODS This randomized clinical trial first established an evidence-based nursing ERAS protocol in older adult patients based on literature related to perioperative nursing measures for gastrointestinal surgery stress response.Next,392 older adult patients who underwent gastrointestinal surgery and were admitted to our hospital between December 2021 and June 2023 were categorized into two groups to receive evidence-based(study group)or conventional(control group)ERAS nursing models,respectively.Intraoperative physiological parameters during surgery and postoperative recovery indicators were compared between the groups.RESULTS Among 64 domestic and international studies,the stress responses of older adult patients mainly included emotional anxiety,sleep disorders,gastrointestinal discomfort,physical weakness,pain,and swelling.The appropriate nursing interventions included comprehensive psychological counseling,pre-and postoperative nutritional support,temperature control,pain management,and rehabilitation training.Compared with the control group,the study group showed lower heart rate,mean arterial pressure,blood glucose level,and adrenaline level;shorter duration of drainage tube placement,time to first flatus,time to first ambulation,and postoperative hospital stay;lower anxiety scores on postoperative day 3;and lower incidences of postoperative infection,obstruction,poor wound healing,and gastrointestinal reactions were lower in the study group(all P<0.05).CONCLUSION The evidence-based nursing measures targeting stress responses based on the conventional ERAS nursing model resulted in stable intraoperative physiological parameters during surgery,promoted postoperative recovery,and reduced the incidence of complications.

文摘Dear Editor,Descemet’s membrane detachment(DMD)is considered as a potential sight-threatening complication following various intraocular surgeries,particularly cataract surgery[1].The labile adhesion between the Descemet’s membrane(DM)and the posterior corneal stromal layer can be easily separated with minimal mechanical force.Several risk factors have been associated with the development of DMD including old age,improper intraoperative operation,corneal ectatic disorders,and endothelial disorders and so on[1-4].
文摘Bariatric and metabolic surgeries have gained extensive popularity and trust due to their documented efficacy and safety in managing not only obesity but also associated comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, sleep apnea, and joint pain. Traditionally, bariatric surgeries have been categorized into hypoabsorptive, restrictive, or hybrid approaches. However, these classifications inadequately reflect the complex anatomical and physiological alterations associated with modern surgical methodologies. This paper explores the evolution of metabolic surgeries, emphasizing the integration of physiological concepts into classic procedures to provide more tailored and effective treatment options for obesity and its comorbidities. Finally, the proposal for a new classification based on current metabolic concepts will facilitate communication among patients, doctors, and healthcare professionals. Additionally, it will enable a more didactic and standardized approach to data collection for conducting studies and publications.
文摘BACKGROUND Thirst management in convalescent patients recovering from a digestive surgery performed under general anesthesia requires attention.A simple,practical,and safe method can effectively relieve thirst symptoms in such patients.AIM To evaluate the enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)-based evidence-based care(EBC)plus ice stimulation therapy for thirst management of convalescent patients following digestive surgery performed under general anesthesia.METHODS A total of 191 patients convalescing after digestive surgery performed under general anesthesia between March 2020 and February 2023 and experiencing thirst were selected.In total,89 patients and 102 patients in the control and research groups received routine care and ERAS-based EBC plus ice stimulation therapy,respectively.The following data were comparatively analyzed:(1)Thirst degree(thirst intensity numerical rating scale)and thirst distress(TD)degree(TD scale);(2)Oral mucosal wetness;(3)Unstimulated whole salivary flow rate(UWSFR);(4)Adverse reactions(palpitation,fatigue,chapped lips,and nausea and vomiting);and(5)Nursing satisfaction.RESULTS After nursing,thirst degree and distress were statistically lower in the research group than in the control group.Additionally,compared with the control group,the research group exhibited a lower degree of oral mucosal wetness,higher UWSFR,fewer adverse reactions,and more total nursing satisfaction.CONCLUSION ERAS-based EBC plus ice stimulation therapy can effectively alleviate thirst in convalescent patients recovering from a digestive surgery performed under general anesthesia.It can alleviate xerostomia symptoms,reduce adverse reactions,and improve patient comfort.
文摘BACKGROUND Atrial fibrillation(AF)represents a common arrhythmia with significant implications and may occur pre-,intra-,or postoperatively(POAF).After cardiac surgery POAF occurs in approximately 30% of patients,while non-cardiac/nonthoracic surgery has a reported incidence between 0.4% to 15%,with new onset POAF occurring at a rate of 0.4% to 3%.While AF has been extensively studied,it has not been well described in emergent non-cardiac surgery associated with increased surgical stress in an intensive care unit setting(ICU).AIM To investigate the incidence/predictors of POAF in emergent non-cardiac surgery and its associations with postoperative outcomes in the ICU.METHODS This retrospective study included patients≥18 years who underwent exploratory laparotomy or lower extremity amputation between October 2012 and September 2023 and were admitted in the ICU.Data of interest included occurrence of POAF,demographic characteristics,comorbidities,laboratory values,administered fluids,medications,and postoperative outcomes.Statistical analyses consisted of identifying predic-tors of POAF and associations of POAF with outcomes of interest.RESULTS A total of 347 ICU patients were included,16.4% had a history of AF,13.0% developed POAF,and 7.9%developed new-onset POAF.Patients with new-onset POAF were older(79.6±9.1 vs 68.1±14.8 years,<0.001),of white race(47.8%vs 28.8,P<0.001),hypertensive(87.0%vs 71.2%,P=0.011),had longer ICU length of stay(ICU-LOS)(13.4 vs 6.7 days,P=0.042),higher mortality(43.5%vs 17.6%,P=0.016)and higher rate of cardiac arrest(34.8%vs 14.6%,P=0.005)compared to patients without new-onset POAF.Multivariable analysis revealed increased POAF risk with advanced age(OR=1.06;95%CI:1.02-1.10,P=0.005),white race(OR=2.85;95%CI:1.26-6.76,P=0.014),high intraoperative fluid(OR>1;95%CI:1.00-1.00,P=0.018),and longer ICU-LOS(OR=1.04;95%CI:1.00-1.08,P=0.023).After adjusting for demographics,new onset POAF significantly predicted mortality(OR=3.07;95%CI:1.14-8.01,P=0.022).CONCLUSION POAF was associated with prolonged ICU-LOS,white race,and high intraoperative fluid.New-onset POAF was associated with increased risk of cardiac arrest and death in critically ill patients.
文摘Restoring the balance of gut microbiota has emerged as a critical strategy in treating intestinal disorders,with probiotics playing a pivotal role in maintaining bacterial equilibrium.Surgical preparations,trauma,and digestive tract reconstruction associated with intestinal surgeries often disrupt the intestinal flora,prompting interest in the potential role of probiotics in postoperative recovery.Lan et al conducted a prospective randomized study on 60 patients with acute appendicitis,revealing that postoperative administration of Bacillus licheniformis capsules facilitated early resolution of inflammation and restoration of gastrointestinal motility,offering a novel therapeutic avenue for accelerated postoperative recovery.This editorial delves into the effects of perioperative probiotic supplementation on physical and intestinal recovery following surgery.Within the framework of enhanced recovery after surgery,the exploration of new probiotic supplementation strategies to mitigate surgical complications and reshape gut microbiota is particularly intriguing.
文摘BACKGROUND Recently,intestinal stenting combined with laparoscopic surgery has received increasing attention as a treatment option for acute intestinal obstruction.However,its safety and efficacy have not yet been established.AIM To assess the efficacy and safety of combining intestinal stenting with laparoscopic surgery for the management of acute intestinal obstruction.METHODS Clinical data from 74 patients with colorectal cancer and acute intestinal obstruction,who were admitted to the emergency department of the authors’hospital between October 2023 and November 2024,were collected and analyzed.Patients were divided into two groups based on the surgical intervention:A control group(emergency open surgery,n=37)and a study group(intestinal stent implantation combined with laparoscopic surgery,n=37).Observation indicators included stent placement rate,obstruction relief rate,and stent-related complications.RESULTS Intestinal stent placement was 100%successful in the study group,all of whom experienced relief from obstruction while exhibiting a significantly lower rate of ostomy creation and a higher rate of primary anastomosis than in the control group,as well as less intraoperative blood loss,shorter time to flatus,and shorter hospital stay.The complication rate was 5.41%(2/37;bleeding and re-obstruction),with no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of operative duration or perioperative mortality.The overall complication rates were 5.41%(2/37)and 21.62%(8/37)in the intervention and control groups,respectively.Tumor recurrence and overall survival rates were 2.70%and 97.30%in the study group and 13.51%and 91.89%in the control group,respectively.CONCLUSION Intestinal stenting relieved acute obstructions,reduced the number of emergency surgeries,and supported laparoscopic procedures while improving primary anastomosis rates,minimizing ostomy occurrence,surgical trauma,and complications,and accelerating recovery.

文摘Objective: This study aims to investigate the drainage effect and clinical outcomes of negative pressure chest drainage in patients after two-port thoracoscopic valve surgery, comparing the differences in postoperative pain, hospital stay, and other factors between the negative pressure group and the control group. Methods: This study is a prospective controlled trial that selected patients undergoing two-port thoracoscopic valve surgery at a certain hospital from January 2019 to December 2024. Patients were randomly assigned to the control group and the negative pressure group using a random number table method. The control group consisted of 30 patients (20 males, 10 females, mean age 42.03 ± 12.89 years), and the negative pressure group consisted of 35 patients (26 males, 9 females, mean age 41.84 ± 11.83 years). The control group received traditional chest drainage, while the negative pressure group received negative pressure chest drainage. Postoperative pain scores, hospital stay, drainage time, number of tube blockages, and incidences of pneumothorax or subcutaneous emphysema were recorded and statistically analyzed. Results: The negative pressure group had a significantly shorter postoperative drainage time compared to the control group (49.09 ± 11.99 hours vs. 79.10 ± 7.32 hours, P < 0.001). The postoperative pain score was lower in the negative pressure group (4.49 ± 1.27 vs. 7.03 ± 0.85, P < 0.001), and the hospital stay was significantly shorter (9.83 ± 1.69 days vs. 14.73 ± 2.32 days, P < 0.001). The incidence of pneumothorax or subcutaneous emphysema was significantly lower in the negative pressure group than in the control group (14.29% vs. 56.67%, P = 0.0003). Conclusion: The application of negative pressure chest drainage in patients after two-port thoracoscopic valve surgery can effectively reduce postoperative pain, shorten hospital stay, and lower the incidence of tube blockage and pneumothorax, demonstrating good clinical outcomes.
文摘BACKGROUND Prolonged recovery following colorectal cancer(CRC)surgery can result in physiological discomfort and psychological stress,underscoring the importance of effective perioperative care to enhance patient outcomes.AIM To evaluate the impact of multidisciplinary collaborative enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)nursing on patients undergoing CRC surgery.METHODS This study included 100 patients who underwent CRC surgery between August 2022 and August 2024.Patients were divided into two groups based on the perioperative nursing approach.The control group(n=50)received conventional nursing care,whereas the observation group(n=50)received multidisciplinary collaborative ERAS nursing.Postoperative recovery time,disease perception,pain levels,coping strategies,self-management efficacy,and quality of life were compared between the two groups.RESULTS Compared with the control group,the observation group exhibited significantly shorter times to ambulation,gastrointestinal motility,first meal intake,and hospital stay(P<0.05).No significant differences were observed in pre-nursing indicators between the two groups(P>0.05).After nursing,both groups showed improvements in disease perception scores,self-management efficacy,and quality of life scores,along with reductions in pain levels and coping strategy scores,except for the confrontative and venting dimensions.The observation group demonstrated significantly greater improvements in these scores,with significant intergroup and intragroup differences(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Multidisciplinary collaborative ERAS nursing can facilitate postoperative recovery in patients with CRC,enhance disease cognition,alleviate pain,and encourage active coping,thereby improving self-management efficacy and quality of life.

文摘BACKGROUND Rhabdomyolysis(RML)as an etiological factor causing acute kidney injury(AKI)is sparsely reported in the literature.AIM To study the incidence of RML after surgical repair of an ascending aortic dissection(AAD)and to correlate with the outcome,especially regarding renal function.To pinpoint the perioperative risk factors associated with the development of RML and adverse renal outcomes after aortic dissection repair.METHODS Retrospective single-center cohort study conducted in a tertiary cardiac center.We included all patients who underwent AAD repair from 2011-2017.Post-operative RML workup is part of the institutional protocol;studied patients were divided into two groups:Group 1 with RML(creatine kinase above cut-off levels 2500 U/L)and Group 2 without RML.The potential determinants of RML and impact on patient outcome,especially postoperative renal function,were studied.Other outcome parameters studied were markers of cardiac injury,length of ventilation,length of stay in the intensive care unit),and length of hospitalization.RESULTS Out of 33 patients studied,21 patients(64%)developed RML(Group RML),and 12 did not(Group non-RML).Demographic and intraoperative factors,notably body mass index,duration of surgery,and cardiopulmonary bypass,had no significant impact on the incidence of RML.Preoperative visceral/peripheral malperfusion,though not statistically significant,was higher in the RML group.A significantly higher incidence of renal complications,including de novo postoperative dialysis,was noticed in the RML group.Other morbidity parameters were also higher in the RML group.There was a significantly higher incidence of AKI in the RML group(90%)than in the non-RML group(25%).All four patients who required de novo dialysis belonged to the RML group.The peak troponin levels were significantly higher in the RML group.CONCLUSION In this study,we noticed a high incidence of RML after aortic dissection surgery,coupled with an adverse renal outcome and the need for post-operative dialysis.Prompt recognition and management of RML might improve the renal outcome.Further large-scale prospective trials are warranted to investigate the predisposing factors and influence of RML on major morbidity and mortality outcomes.
文摘Gastric cancer with peritoneal carcinomatosis(PC)remains a formidable challenge in oncological care,especially regarding surgical intervention.Integrating enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)protocols into gastrectomy with cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy has emerged as a promising approach.This minireview explores the influence of ERAS on surgical and oncological outcomes in this multifaceted procedure.Recent evidence suggests that ERAS,comprising multimodal strategies,improves postoperative recovery,reduces complications,and enhances quality of life.It may also contribute to better survival outcomes by minimizing perioperative morbidity and thereby facilitating the timely initiation of adjuvant therapy.Mechanistically,ERAS promotes early mobilization,attenuates postoperative immunosuppression,and supports timely adjuvant therapies,which are crucial in managing carcinomatosis.This minireview underscores the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration and individualized patient care to maximize ERAS benefits.Large-scale,prospective investigations are warranted to validate these findings and refine ERAS protocols for this specialized patient cohort.Further research will facilitate ongoing advancements in oncological surgery and perioperative care,ultimately improving outcomes for patients with gastric cancer and PC.
文摘BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal(GI)perforation(GP)repair is a surgical procedure to promptly seal perforations in the GI tract to prevent further leakage.After surgery,patients often experience a high metabolic state due to trauma,infection,and posto-perative stress.In the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery(ERAS)protocol,early enteral nutrition is a key strategy for promoting postoperative recovery.Com-pared with parenteral nutrition,enteral nutrition more effectively meets the physiological needs of the GI system,promotes the recovery of gut function,and reduces the risk of GI infections.AIM To evaluate the clinical efficacy of early enteral nutrition support in patients undergoing GP repair within the ERAS protocol.METHODS This retrospective study analyzed 66 patients who underwent GP repair.Patients were divided into a control group(n=32),managed with a traditional nutritional regimen,primarily consisting of total parenteral nutrition;and an observation group(n=34),which included those who received early enteral nutrition support as part of the ERAS protocol.This study examined the time to first postoperative flatus and bowel movement,changes in nutritional and immune function,inflam-matory markers on postoperative days 1 and 5,and adverse reactions.RESULTS The observation group had significantly shorter times to the first postoperative flatus and bowel movement than the control group(P<0.05).On postoperative day 5,the observation group demonstrated higher nutritional and immune function levels than the control group(P<0.05),while C-reactive protein levels were significantly lower(P<0.05).The overall incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was 8.82%(3/34),which was lower than the 28.13%(9/32)observed in the control group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Early enteral nutritional support facilitates GI recovery after GP repair.It improves nutritional status,enhances immune function,and attenuates inflammatory responses while also demonstrating a favorable safety profile.
文摘BACKGROUND Self-expandable metal stent(SEMS)as a bridge to surgery(BTS)has become a popular alternative to emergency surgery in the management of acute left-sided malignant colonic obstruction(MCO).However,it remains controversial for colonic stent as a BTS due to a lack of consensus and insufficient data.AIM To assess the clinical and oncological safety of SEMS insertion followed by elective resection for acute left-sided MCO.METHODS The data from 96 patients with acute left-sided MCO in our institution from January 2018 to May 2020 were analyzed retrospectively.They underwent colonic stenting as a bridge to elective surgery(BTS group:n=40)or emergency resection(ER group:n=56).Demographic characteristics,stoma rate,laparoscopy rate,postoperative complications,and oncological outcomes were compared between the two groups.RESULTS The two groups were comparable with regard to the demographics and tumor characteristics.The stoma rate was 7.5%in the BTS group vs 48.2%in the ER group(P<0.05).Primary anastomosis was performed in all patients in the BTS group,and only three patients underwent protective stoma in the BTS group.The BTS group had a significantly higher rate of laparoscopic surgery than the ER group(90%vs 57.1%,P<0.05),and the major postoperative complication rate was significantly higher in the ER group than in the BTS group(33.9%vs 15%,P=0.04).According to the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and log rank test,no significant differences existed in the two groups with regard to the overall survival and disease-free survival.CONCLUSION The utilization of SEMS as a BTS is a useful alternative to emergency surgery in the treatment of acute left-sided MCO.SEMS insertion as a BTS can provide an effective and safe therapeutic option compared to emergency surgery.

文摘Delirium is a transient and acute syndrome of encephalopathy,characterized by disturbances in consciousness,orientation,cognition,perception,and emotional regulation,often accompanied by hallucinations,illusions,psychomotor agitation,and restlessness.Postoperative delirium(POD),a common complication particularly in elderly patients,significantly impacts recovery by prolonging mechanical ventilation,neurosurgical intensive care unit stays,and overall hospitalization durations,while severely diminishing patients’quality of life after discharge.Despite its prevalence,POD remains underrecognized in clinical practice,with significant gaps in its diagnosis and management.This review explores the definition,diagnostic criteria,underlying pathogenesis,and associated risk factors of POD in neurosurgical patients,aiming to offer valuable insights for improving clinical diagnosis and therapeutic strategies.
文摘Objective:To analyze the effect of perioperative comprehensive nursing intervention on patients undergoing breast surgery in oncology surgery.Methods:A total of 100 patients undergoing breast surgery were selected as the study subjects and divided into a control group and a study group.The control group received routine nursing,while the study group received perioperative comprehensive nursing.The effects were observed.Results:The study group had lower negative emotion scores and complication rates than the control group,and higher range of motion of the affected shoulder joint and quality of life than the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Oncology breast surgery is often accompanied by adverse psychological emotions during the perioperative period.To ensure surgical efficacy and postoperative recovery,comprehensive perioperative nursing measures can effectively prevent and develop complications,improve shoulder joint range of motion,and promote recovery.
文摘In this editorial we comment on the article by Kalayarasan and co-workers published in the recent issue of the World Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery.The authors present an interesting review on the use of indocyanine green fluo-rescence in different aspects of abdominal surgery.They also highlight future perspectives of the use of indocyanine green in mini-invasive surgery.Indo-cyanine green,used for fluorescence imaging,has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration and is safe for use in humans.It can be administered in-travenously or intra-arterially.Since its advent,there have been several advance-ments in the applications of indocyanine green,especially in the surgical field,such as intraoperative mapping and biopsy of sentinel lymph node,measurement of hepatic function prior to resection,in neurosurgical cases to detect vascular anomalies,in cardiovascular cases for patency and assessment of vascular ab-normalities,in predicting healing following amputations,in helping visualization of hepatobiliary anatomy and blood vessels,in reconstructive surgery,to assess flap viability and for the evaluation of tissue perfusion following major trauma and burns.For these reasons,the intraoperative use of indocyanine green has become common in a variety of surgical specialties and transplant surgery.Co-lorectal surgery has just lately begun to adopt this technique,particularly for perfusion visualization to prevent anastomotic leakage.The regular use of in-docyanine green coupled with fluorescence angiography has recently been pro-posed as a feasible tool to help improve patient outcomes.Using the best available data,it has been shown that routine use of indocyanine green in colorectal surgery reduces the rates of anastomotic leak.The use of indocyanine green is proven to be safe,feasible,and effective in both elective and emergency scenarios.However,additional robust evidence from larger-scale,high-quality studies is essential before incorporating indocyanine green guided surgery into standard practice.
