Abstract Background Various approaches have been used to assist and facilitate segmentectomy with favorable oncological outcomes. We describe a hybrid approach comprising virtual-assisted lung mapping (VAL-MAP), which is a preoperative bronchoscopic dye-marking technique, combined with systemic indocyanine green (ICG) injection. Clinical presentation An asymptomatic 64-year-old man was referred to our department because of a lung nodule detected during his annual medical checkup. The chest computed-tomography image revealed a 16-mm, partly solid, ground-glass nodule in the left segment 4. Because the nodule was hardly palpable and deeply located between the left upper division segment and the left lingular segment, we performed VAL-MAP to facilitate extended left lingulectomy. Five dye markings were undertaken preoperatively. Surgery to remove the nodule was then conducted via complete three-port video-assisted thoracic surgery. The VAL-MAP markings were easily identified intraoperatively and helped locate the nodule. The intersegmental plane was identified by the ICG injection. The resection line was determined based on the intersegmental plane identified by the ICG injection and the site of the nodule suggested by the VAL-MAP markings. Following the resection line, we thoracoscopically achieved extended lingulectomy with sufficient surgical margins. The patient was discharged with no complications. The pathological diagnosis was adenocarcinoma in situ. Conclusion The hybrid technique of VAL-MAP and systemic ICG injection can be useful for accomplishing successful extended segmentectomy.

BackgroundPrecise preoperative localization is of great importance to improve the success rate and reduce the operation time of VATS surgery. This study aimed to assess the efficacy, safety, patient perception between CT-guided indocyanine green (ICG) preoperative localization of lung nodule and hook-wire localization.Methods65 patients with 85 clinically suspicious pulmonary nodules underwent ICG preoperative localization in this study, and 92 patients with 95 nodules localized by conventional hook-wire served as controls. Both hook-wire localization and ICG injection were performed under CT guidance. Successful targeting rate, success rate in the operative field, incidence rate of complications and respiratory pain score were recorded and compared.ResultsThe successful targeting rate for both groups is 100%, however, due to hook-wire dislodgement, the success rate in the VATS operation field of the hook-wire group (95.6%) is lower than that of the ICG group (100%), with no significant difference(p=0.056). The overall complication rate of the hook-wire group (37.0%) is significantly higher than the ICG group (35.4%) (p=0.038). The mean respiratory pain score of the hook-wire group is 3.70 ± 1.25, which is significantly higher than that of the ICG group (2.85 ± 1.05) (p<0.001).ConclusionsICG composed with contrast mixture are superior to the conventional hook-wire preoperative lung nodule localization procedure, with a lower complication rate, lower pain score, and relatively higher success rate. ICG is a promising alternative method for pulmonary nodule preoperative localization.

Abstract. Background: Perioperative evaluation in peripheral artery disease (PAD) by common vascular diagnostic tools is limited by open wounds, medial calcinosis or an altered collateral supply of the foot. Indocyanine green fluorescent imaging (ICG-FI) has recently been introduced as an alternative tool, but so far a standardized quantitative assessment of tissue perfusion in vascular surgery has not been performed for this purpose. The aim of this feasibility study was to investigate a new software for quantitative assessment of tissue perfusion in patients with PAD using indocyanine green fluorescent imaging (ICG-FI) before and after peripheral bypass grafting. Patients and methods: Indocyanine green fluorescent imaging was performed in seven patients using the SPY Elite system before and after peripheral bypass grafting for PAD (Rutherford III-VI). Visual and quantitative evaluation of tissue perfusion was assessed in an area of low perfusion (ALP) and high perfusion (AHP), each by three independent investigators. Data assessment was performed offline using a specially customized software package (Institute for Laser Technology, University Ulm, GmbH). Slope of fluorescent intensity (SFI) was measured as time-intensity curves. Values were compared to ankle-brachial index (ABI), slope of oscillation (SOO), and time to peak (TTP) obtained from photoplethysmography (PPG). Results: All measurements before and after surgery were successfully performed, showing that ABI, TTP, and SOO increased significantly compared to preoperative values, all being statistically significant (P < 0.05), except for TTP (p = 0.061). Further, SFI increased significantly in both ALP and AHP (P < 0.05) and correlated considerably with ABI, TTP, and SOO (P < 0.05). Conclusions: In addition to ABI and slope of oscillation (SOO), the ICG-FI technique allows visual assessment in combination with quantitative assessment of tissue perfusion in patients with PAD. Ratios related to different perfusion patterns and SFI seem to be useful tools to reduce factors disturbing ICG-FI measurements.
