Abstract
Anastomotic leakage (AL), one of the most severe complications in rectal surgery, is often diagnosed late because of the low specificity of the clinical symptoms and limitations of current clinical investigations. Identification of patients with early AL remains challenging. Here, we explored the protein expression profiles of AL patients to provide potential biomarkers to identify AL in patients who undergo surgery for rectal cancer. We screened differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in drainage fluid from AL and non-AL patients using a tandem mass tag method. A total of 248 DEPs, including 98 upregulated and 150 downregulated proteins, were identified between AL and non-AL groups. Gene ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analyses suggested that DEPs were enriched in neutrophil degranulation, bacterial infection, proteolysis, hemostasis, and complement and coagulation cascades. The results of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay validated that the expression of the top three upregulated DEPs, AMY2A, RETN, and CELA3A, was significantly increased in the drainage fluid of AL patients, compared with that of non-AL patients (AMY2A, P = 0.001; RETN, P < 0.0001; and CELA3A, P = 0.023). Thus, our findings provide several potential biomarkers for the early diagnosis of AL after rectal cancer resection.

Surface microdialysis measures local tissue metabolism after Ivor Lewis esophagectomy; an attempt to predict anastomotic defect. Dis Esophagus 2023; 36:doac111.

Abstract
Anastomotic defect (AD) after esophagectomy can lead to severe complications with need for surgical or endoscopic intervention. Early detection enables early treatment and can limit the consequences of the AD. As of today, there are limited methods to predict AD. In this study, we have used microdialysis (MD) to measure local metabolism at the intrathoracic anastomosis. Feasibility and possible diagnostic use were investigated. Sixty patients planned for Ivor Lewis esophagectomy were enrolled. After construction of the anastomosis, surface MD (S-MD) probes were attached to the outer surface of the esophageal remnant and the gastric conduit in close vicinity of the anastomosis and left in place for 7 postoperative days (PODs). Continuous sampling of local tissue concentrations of metabolic substances (glucose, lactate, and pyruvate) was performed postoperatively. Outcome, defined as AD or not according to Esophagectomy Complications Consensus Group definitions, was recorded at discharge or at first postoperative follow up. Difference in concentrations of metabolic substances was analyzed retrospectively between the two groups by means of artificial neural network technique. S-MD probes can be attached and removed from the gastric tube reconstruction without any adverse events. Deviating metabolite concentrations on POD 1 were associated with later development of AD. In subjects who developed AD, no difference in metabolic concentrations between the esophageal and the gastric probe was recorded. The technical failure rate of the MD probes/procedure was high. S-MD can be used in a clinical setting after Ivor Lewis esophagectomy. Deviation in local tissue metabolism on POD 1 seems to be associated with development of AD. Further development of MD probes and procedure is required to reduce technical failure.

Serum and peritoneal biomarkers for the early prediction of symptomatic anastomotic leakage in patients following laparoscopic low anterior resection: A single-center prospective cohort study. Cancer Rep (Hoboken) 2023; 6:e1781. [PMID: 36718787 PMCID: PMC10075299 DOI: 10.1002/cnr2.1781] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2022] [Revised: 12/14/2022] [Accepted: 01/02/2023] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Anastomotic leakage (AL) is one of the common complications after rectal cancer surgery. This study aimed to evaluate the combination of biomarkers for the early prediction of symptomatic AL after surgery. METHODS A prospective cohort study evaluated the serum and peritoneal biomarkers of patients who underwent laparoscopic low anterior resection (Lap LAR) from November 1, 2021, to May 1, 2022. Multivariate-penalized logistic regression was performed to explore the independent biomarker with a P-value <.1, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity of the independent biomarkers. A predictive model for symptomatic AL was built based on the independent biomarkers and was visualized with a nomogram. The calibration curve with the concordance index (c-index) was further applied to evaluate the efficacy of the predictive model. RESULTS A total of 157 patients were included in this study, and 7 (4.5%) were diagnosed with symptomatic AL. C-reactive protein/album ratio (CAR) on postoperative day 1 and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and peritoneal interleukin-6 (IL-6) on postoperative day 3 were proven to be independent predictors for the early prediction of symptomatic AL. The optimal cutoff values of CAR, SII, and peritoneal IL-6 were 1.04, 916.99, and 26430.09 pg/ml, respectively. Finally, the nomogram, including these predictors, was established, and the c-index of this nomogram was 0.812, indicating that the nomogram could be used for potential clinical reference. CONCLUSION The combination of CAR, SII, and peritoneal IL-6 might contribute to the early prediction of symptomatic AL in patients following Lap LAR. Given the limitations of this study and the emergence of other novel biomarkers, multicenter prospective studies are worthy of further exploration.

High amylase concentration in drainage liquid can early predict proximal and distal intestinal anastomotic leakages: A prospective observational study. JOURNAL OF RESEARCH IN MEDICAL SCIENCES 2023; 28:5. [PMID: 36974108 PMCID: PMC10039101 DOI: 10.4103/jrms.jrms_273_21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2021] [Revised: 04/14/2021] [Accepted: 06/09/2022] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
Background Anastomotic leak (AL) is a serious complication in digestive surgery. Early diagnosis might allow clinicians to anticipate appropriate management. The aim of this study was to assess the predictive value of amylase concentration in drain fluid for the early diagnosis of digestive tract AL. Materials and Methods Hundred and fourteen consecutive patients "at risk" of AL, in whom a flexible drainage was placed by surgeon's choice after digestive anastomosis were included. Patients with eso-gastric, bilio-digestive, and pancreatic anastomoses were excluded. Drain amylase measurement (DAM) was routinely performed on postoperative day (POD) 1, 3, 5-7. DAM values were compared between patients with postoperative AL versus patients without AL. A receiver-operating curve (ROC) with calculation of the areas under the ROC curves area under curves was performed and a cutoff value of DAM was calculated. Results AL occurred in 25 patients (AL group) and 89 patients did not present AL (C group). The mean DAM was significantly higher in AL group versus C Group on POD 1, 3, and 5. A cutoff value of 307 IU/L predicted the occurrence of AL with a sensitivity and specificity of 91% and 100%, respectively. Positive and negative predictive values were 100% and 97.5%, respectively. Patients with AL had an elevated DAM prior to the appearance of any clinical signs of AL. Conclusion High level DAM could accurately predict AL for proximal and distal digestive tract anastomoses. This simple, noninvasive, and low-cost method can accurately predict early AL and help physicians to perform appropriate imaging and treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anastomotic blood supply is vital to anastomotic healing. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the effect of the left colic artery (LCA) on blood supply in the anastomotic area, explore the relationship between individual differences in the LCA and blood supply in the anastomotic area, and elucidate the relevant indications for LCA retention during radical resection for sigmoid or rectal cancer. METHOD Radical sigmoid or rectal cancer resection with LCA retention was performed in 40 patients with colorectal cancer who participated in this study. Systemic pressure, LCA diameter, and the distance from the root of the LCA to the root of the inferior mesenteric artery were measured and recorded. The marginal artery stump pressure in the anastomotic colon before and after the LCA clamping was measured, respectively. RESULTS There is a significant difference between the marginal artery stump pressure before LCA ligation and after ligation (53.1 ± 12.38 vs 42.76 ± 12.71, p < 0.001). The anastomotic blood supply positively and linearly correlated with body mass index and systemic pressure. Receiver-operating curve analysis revealed that LCA diameter (area under the curve 0.971, cutoff 1.95 mm) was an effective predictor of LCA improving anastomosis blood supply. No relationship was found between the LCA root location and anastomotic blood supply. CONCLUSION Preserving the LCA is effective in improving blood supply in the anastomotic area, and larger LCA diameters result in a better blood supply to the anastomotic area.

Abstract
AIM To compare the accuracy and interobserver variation of routine computed tomography (CT) on postoperative day 6-8 to detect anastomotic leakage (AL) verified by re-operation and/or endoscopy. A secondary objective was to identify the predictive values of different CT findings as an indicator for AL. MATERIAL AND METHODS The material for this study originates from two previous prospective multicentre studies including 277 patients who were scheduled for routine abdominal CT postoperative day 6-8. Inclusion criteria for the present study were routine CT without contrast medium followed by CT with rectal contrast medium. Two independent senior radiologists blinded to the clinical outcome reviewed the CT examinations for specific findings according to a predefined scheme. RESULTS A total of 52 patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria. AL occurred in 14 patients of which nine were clinical and five subclinical. The two radiologists diagnosed AL at unenhanced CT with sensitivities of 71.4% and 50%, respectively, and of 57.1% and 35.7% with rectal contrast medium. The corresponding specificities were 55.3% and 81.6%, and 94.7% and 92.1%. Peri-anastomotic free air and contrast medium leakage had the highest odds ratios for AL. CONCLUSION The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of routine postoperative CT to detect AL after low anterior resection for rectal cancer is low and with considerable interobserver variation.

The impact of multiple firings on the risk of anastomotic leakage after minimally invasive restorative rectal cancer resection and the impact of anastomotic leakage on long-term survival: a population-based study. Int J Colorectal Dis 2022; 37:1335-1348. [PMID: 35538165 DOI: 10.1007/s00384-022-04171-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 04/22/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the anastomotic leakage (AL) rate and predictors for AL following minimally invasive restorative rectal resection (RRR) among rectal cancer patients managed according to up-to-date standardized treatment. Furthermore, we explored the impact of symptomatic AL on long-term survival. METHODS The study cohort was rectal cancer patients undergoing minimally invasive RRR in Central Denmark Region between 2013 and 2017. Data was retrieved from a prospective clinical quality database and supplemented with data from medical records. The AL rate was calculated as the proportion of patients who developed symptomatic AL within 30 days. Predictors for AL were identified through logistic regression. The impact of AL on long-term survival was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier methods and Cox regression. RESULTS AL occurred in 15.1% of 604 patients. The AL rate for males was 20.1% (95% CI 16.3-24.3) and 5.0% (95% CI 2.4-9.0) for females. Odds ratio (OR) of AL in females vs. males was 0.25 (95% CI 0.12-0.51). The use of at least three firings when transecting the rectum was associated with OR of 2.71 (95% CI 1.17-6.26) for AL. The 5-year survival for patients with vs. those without AL was 76.1% (95%CI 65.1-84.0) and 83.6% (95%CI 79.8-86.7), corresponding to adjusted hazard ratio of 1.43 (95%CI 0.84-2.41). CONCLUSION Symptomatic AL is still a challenge in a standardized setting using minimally invasive surgery in rectal cancer patients undergoing RRR, especially in men. Multiple firings should be avoided in transection of the rectum with an endoscopic stapler. AL had a statistical non-significant negative impact on survival.

Abstract
AIM Anastomotic leak (AL) is the most important complication of intestinal surgery with an anastomosis. Whilst a number of studies have defined risk factors for AL, frustratingly, low-risk patients still develop AL. Studies have looked at drain fluid analysis for detection of AL, but these findings have failed to translate into routine clinical practice. This umbrella systematic review aims to provide an overview of the promising candidate biomarkers (BMs) that show potential to translate into clinical practice. METHODS A systematic literature search was conducted in MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane, KSR Evidence and the Epistemonikos databases on the 14 April 2021. Only systematic reviews of cohort or controlled studies measuring drain fluid biomarkers in humans were included. The methodological quality of the reviews was assessed using the AMSTAR 2 instrument. Clinical trial registries were searched for trials actively investigating drain fluid BMs. Candidate BMs were classified, and threshold values investigated. RESULTS Nine systematic reviews, published between 2007 and 2020, met the inclusion criteria, and contained a total of 36 cohort studies. A total of 38 different BMs were studied. The most promising category of drain fluid BM was the extravasated intra-luminal substances (EILS) and five registered trials of these BMs were found. Two of nine reviews were of moderate quality. CONCLUSIONS The majority of BMs show inconsistent threshold values and are in the experimental stage. A number are not readily available for adoption into routine clinical practice. Most do not state a cut-off value to be considered as diagnostic.

Abstract
Background Robot-assisted surgery is being increasingly adopted in treating colorectal cancer, and the transition from laparoscopic surgery to robot-assisted surgery is a trend. The evidence of the benefits of robot-assisted surgery is sparse. However, findings are associated with improved patient-related outcomes and overall morbidity rates compared to laparoscopic surgery. This induction is unclear, considering both surgical modalities are characterized as minimally invasive. This study aims to evaluate the systemic and peritoneal inflammatory stress response induced by robot-assisted surgery compared with laparoscopic surgery for elective colon cancer resections in a prospective, randomized controlled clinical trial. Methods This study is a single-centre randomized controlled superiority trial with 50 colon cancer participants. The primary endpoint is the level of systemic inflammatory response expressed as serum C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) levels between postoperative days one and three. Secondary endpoints include (i) levels of systemic inflammation in serum expressed by a panel of inflammatory and pro-inflammatory cytokines measured during the first three postoperative days, (ii) postoperative surgical and medical complications (30 days) according to Clavien-Dindo classification and Comprehensive Complication Index, (iii) intraoperative blood loss, (iv) conversion rate to open surgery, (v) length of surgery, (vi) operative time, (vii) the number of harvested lymph nodes, and (viii) length of hospital stay. The exploratory endpoints are (i) levels of peritoneal inflammatory response in peritoneal fluid expressed by inflammatory and pro-inflammatory cytokines between postoperative day one and three, (ii) patient-reported health-related quality of recovery-15 (QoR-15), (iii) 30 days mortality rate, (iv) heart rate variability and (v) gene transcript (mRNA) analysis. Discussion To our knowledge, this is the first clinical randomized controlled trial to clarify the inflammatory stress response induced by robot-assisted or laparoscopic surgery for colon cancer resections.

Abstract
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 correctly can lead to contamination of the abdomen with intestinal contents and the development of peritonitis. The additional care that these patients require is associated with longer hospitalisation stays and increased economic costs. Patients also have higher morbidity and mortality rates and poorer oncological prognosis. Unfortunately, current practices for AL diagnosis are non-specific, which may delay diagnosis and have a negative impact on patient outcome. To overcome these issues, research is continuing to identify AL diagnostic or predictive biomarkers. In this review, we highlight promising candidate biomarkers including ischaemic metabolites, inflammatory markers and bacteria. Although research has focused on the use of blood or peritoneal fluid samples, we describe the use of implantable medical devices that have been designed to measure biomarkers in peri-anastomotic tissue. Biomarkers that can be used in conjunction with clinical status, routine haematological and biochemical analysis and imaging have the potential to help to deliver a precision medicine package that could significantly enhance a patient's post-operative care and improve outcomes. Although no AL biomarker has yet been validated in large-scale clinical trials, there is confidence that personalised medicine, through biomarker analysis, could be realised for colorectal cancer intestinal resection and anastomosis patients in the years to come.

Abstract
PURPOSE Several studies have reported the efficacy of near-infrared imaging using indocyanine green in laparoscopic low anterior resection (LAR), but a detailed examination of its fluorescence abnormalities is still insufficient. The purpose of this study was to clarify the incidence of fluorescence abnormalities and to create a new prediction score in laparoscopic LAR. METHODS This was a retrospective, multicenter study that included patients with rectal cancer who underwent laparoscopic LAR from September 2014 to November 2018. RESULTS A total of 336 patients were included. The transection line was changed due to fluorescence abnormalities in 5.4% (18/336) of cases, and the median length of additional resection was 70 mm. Anastomotic leakage of Clavien-Dindo grade ≥ II occurred in 6.0% (20/336). The gender and the intraoperative pre-planned proximal margin (IpPM) were significant factors for fluorescence abnormalities. We devised the fluorescence abnormality prediction score (FAPS) derived from the gender, IpPM, and tumor height from the anal verge (TumorAV). The area under the curve of the FAPS was 0.784 (95% CI: 0.677-0.891). When the cutoff was 4, the sensitivity was 0.833, and the specificity was 0.626. The preoperative pre-planned proximal margin (PpPM) was calculated as follows: PpPM (mm) = 189 (mm) - TumorAV (mm) + 61 × Male (1/0). The proximal margin should be set to be larger than the PpPM to avoid fluorescence abnormalities. CONCLUSION The incidence of fluorescence abnormalities in laparoscopic LAR was 5.4%. If the FAPS is used, the PpPM may be set from the viewpoint of the blood perfusion. TRIAL REGISTRATION Japanese Clinical Trials Registry: UMIN000032654 ( http://www.umin.ac.jp/ctr/index.htm ).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Anastomotic leakage is a common complication following large abdominal surgery, often developing to life-threatening abdominal sepsis due to late diagnosis. Currently, diagnostics rely on systemic hemodynamic and infection monitoring. We hypothesized that intraperitoneal microdialysis allows detection of peritonitis prior to changes in standard clinical parameters in a pig model. MATERIALS AND METHODS We included six pigs; five underwent intraperitoneal fecal contamination, one had sham surgery for a total of 10 h. Microdialysis was established in four intraabdominal quadrants and two hepatic lobes. All pigs were hemodynamically monitored with pulmonary artery and femoral artery catheters. Blood samples were assessed for inflammatory markers, terminal complement complex (TCC), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10, and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1). RESULTS Microdialysis showed intraperitoneal lactate increase during the first two hours after fecal contamination, which remained elevated throughout the observation time with concurrent decrease of glucose. Arterial lactate remained within reference range (<1,6mM). Systemic inflammatory markers TCC, IL-6, IL-10 and PAI-1 increased significantly after minimum four hours. Mean arterial pressure, stroke volume variation and cardiac output were not compromised the first five hours. Sham surgery did not influence any of the parameters. CONCLUSION Intraperitoneal fecal contamination leads to a rapid and pronounced intraperitoneal increase in lactate, decrease in glucose while pyruvate and glycerol levels remain unchanged. This distinct metabolic pattern of peritoneal inflammation can be easily detected by microdialysis. Observation of this pattern may minimize time to safe diagnosis of intestinal perforations after intraperitoneal fecal contamination.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inadequate blood supply is one of the major risk factors for anastomotic leak after low anterior rectal resection. Early detection of ischemia might predict complicated healing and enable anastomotic salvage, which is associated with better outcomes. A microdialysis offers a real-time evaluation of adequate bowel perfusion through monitoring of tissue metabolism. In this experimental study, we assessed the role of microdialysis in detecting early ischemia after colorectal anastomosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Colorectal anastomosis was performed in six miniature pigs. A microdialysis catheter was placed on the bowel serosa 5 mm proximal to the anastomosis. Metabolic changes were monitored hourly before and after initiating ischemia, which was induced by ligation of the inferior mesenteric artery and skeletonization of the mesocolon. RESULTS Significant increase in tissue levels of lactate was detected after 60 min of ischemia (13.6 [10.4-16.1] versus 6.75 [1.8-9.6] mmol/L at baseline; P < 0.005). The lactate/pyruvate ratio increased accordingly. The concentration of glycerol increased significantly after 2 hours-from a baseline value of 29.5 (3-84) to 125 (79-201) mmol/L (P < 0.005). The decrease in glucose levels was also significant after 60 minutes-0 (0-0.2) versus 4.7 (3.3-6.8) mmol/L at baseline. However, its values started to decline before ischemia. CONCLUSIONS Surface microdialysis can detect ischemic changes early and may be a promising method in postoperative monitoring of colorectal anastomosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of intraoperative use of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence angiography (ICGFA) to prevent anastomotic leakage (AL) in rectal cancer surgery remains controversial. METHODS The systematic review for studies evaluating ICGFA in patients undergoing rectal cancer surgery in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library was performed up to April 30, 2020. The primary outcome was the incidence of AL. The analysis was performed using RevMan v5.3 and Stata v12.0 software. RESULTS Eighteen studies comprising 4038 patients were included. In the present meta-analysis, intraoperative use of ICGFA markedly reduced AL rate (OR = 0.33; 95% CI: 0.24-0.45; P < 0.0001; I2 = 0%) in rectal cancer surgery, which was still significant in surgeries limited to symptomatic AL (OR = 0.44; 95% CI: 0.31-0.64; P < 0.0001; I2 = 22%). This intervention was also associated with shorter postoperative stays (MD = - 1.27; 95% CI: - 2.42 to - 0.13; P = 0.04; I2 = 60%). However, reoperation rate (OR = 0.61; 95% CI: 0.34-1.10; P = 0.10; I2 = 6%), ileus rate (OR = 1.30; 95% CI: 0.60-2.82; P = 0.51; I2 = 56%), and surgical site infection rate (OR = 1.40; 95% CI: 0.62-3.20; P = 0.42; I2 = 0%) were not significantly different between the two groups. CONCLUSION The use of ICGFA was associated with a lower AL rate after rectal cancer resection. However, more multi-center RCTs with large sample size are required to further verify the value of ICGFA in rectal cancer surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Colorectal anastomoses in patients with colorectal cancer carry a high risk of leakage. Indocyanine green fluorescence angiography (ICG-FA) is a new technique that allows surgeons to assess the blood perfusion of the anastomosis during operation. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate whether ICG-FA could prevent anastomotic leakage (AL) in colorectal surgery. METHODS Four databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library) were searched to identify suitable literatures until March 2020 that compared AL rates between intraoperative use and non-use of ICG-FA in colorectal surgery for cancer. The Review Manager 5.3 software was used to perform the statistical analysis. Evaluation of articles quality and analysis for publication bias were also conducted. RESULTS Thirteen studies of 4037 patients were included in the meta-analysis. The study included 1806 patients in the ICG group and 2231 patients in the control group. The pooled incidence of AL in ICG group was 3.8% compared with 7.8% in control group. There was a significant difference in AL rate with or without use of ICG-FA (OR 0.44; 95% CI 0.33-0.59; P < 0.00001). Reoperation rates were 2.6% and 6.9% in ICG and control groups, respectively. Application of intraoperative ICG-FA was associated with a lower risk of reoperation (OR 0.39; 95% CI 0.16-0.94; P = 0.04). Overall complication rate was 15.6% in the ICG group compared with 21.2% in the control group. Overall complications were significantly reduced when using ICG-FA (OR 0.62; 95% CI 0.47-0.82; P = 0.0008). Mortality rate was not statistically different with or without the use of ICG-FA (OR 1.22; 95% CI 0.20-7.30; P = 0.83). CONCLUSION The results revealed that ICG-FA reduced risks of AL, reoperation, and overall complications for colorectal cancer patients undergoing colorectal surgery. Well-designed RCTs are needed to confirm the usefulness of intraoperative ICG-FA for preventing surgical complications like AL and reoperation.

Abstract
PURPOSE The usage of indocyanine green (ICG) dye is commonly associated with decreased anastomotic leakage rates in colectomies. This study aims to perform a network meta-analysis to assess the usage of ICG fluorescence imaging in right-sided colectomies. METHODS Medline, Embase, Cochrane Trials, CNKI, and WanFang electronic databases were reviewed, and meta-analysis of proportions, comparative meta-analysis, and network meta-analysis were conducted in this review. Studies comparing ICG usage with conventional approaches of anastomosis were selected, with postoperative anastomotic leak rate being the primary outcome. RESULTS Ten articles were included, with a total of 675 patients involved, of which 515 patients underwent colorectal surgery with ICG. Anastomotic leak rates with ICG were estimated to be 1% (CI 0.00-0.04) and 3% (CI 0.01-0.06) for right and left procedures, respectively. No significant difference was observed in left-sided colectomies (OR 0.587; 95% CI 0.218-1.582; p = 0.292). There were nearly half the odds of anastomotic leakage when ICG was used in right-sided colectomies (OR 0.524; 95% CI 0.128-2.137). CONCLUSION With the ability to potentially avert postoperative anastomotic leakage, coupled with its minimal costs and side effects, administration of ICG in colectomies in centers where equipment is available should be encouraged.
