Abstract

Real-time indocyanine green (ICG) guided surgery has been reported to be safe for cholangiography in laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Laparoscopic fenestration (LF) is a standard and safe procedure for liver cysts. However, no cases had been reported for simultaneous treatment of fenestration and cholecystectomy using ICG guided laparoscopic surgery. In this presented study, a case of successful simultaneous treatment of LF and LC was reported using ICG to prevent biliary injury. A 72-year-old man diagnosed with multiple hepatic cysts and gallstones was given 0.1 mg ICG intravenously 20 min before surgery. ICG cholangiography clearly showed the common bile duct and the liver parenchyma for LC. The cystohepatic triangle was safely dissected without injuring the common bile duct using the merge view mode. ICG fluorescence cholangiography clearly showed the biliary ducts inside the cyst and distinguished the wall of cysts from parenchyma. Only the cyst walls were resected to the greatest extent possible without injuring surrounding bile ducts. With the administration of 0.1 mg ICG intravenously 20 min before surgery, real-time ICG guided surgery is safe for simultaneous LF and LC for avoidance of bile duct injury. In conclusion, administration of 0.1 mg ICG intravenously 20 min before surgery is an applicable dose and timing for ICG guided simultaneous LF and LC and deserves popularization.
