No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Indocyanine green (ICG) has been recently introduced in clinical practice as a fuorescent tracer. Lymphadenectomy is particularly challenging in esophageal cancer surgery, owing to the complex anatomical drainage.Therefore, the purpose of this study was to explore whether the NIR-ICG imaging system could accurately assess the lymph node markers during radical resection of esophageal cancer.

Conditions

  • Esophageal Cancer
  • Indocyanine Green

Interventions

DRUG

Indocyanine green solution

ICG solution was endoscopically injected into the esophageal submucosa at the four quadrants around the tumor.
