Despite innovative advancements, distally located rectal cancer remains a critical disease of
challenging management. The crucial location of the tumor predisposes it to a …

Background In the present study, patients with colorectal anastomoses that were assessed
with indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence angiography (FA) were compared to patients …

Development of an anastomotic leak (AL) following intestinal surgery for the treatment of
colorectal cancers is a life-threatening complication. Failure of the anastomosis to heal …

Background Anastomotic leakage is a severe postoperative complication in colorectal
surgery and compromised bowel perfusion is considered a major contributing factor …

Purpose Incorrect assessment of tissue perfusion carries a significant risk of complications in
surgery. The use of near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging with Indocyanine Green (ICG) …
