RESUMO
THE AIM OF THE STUDY: Is evaluating the possibility of integrating ICG-fluorescent cholangiography into the general safety system for laparoscopic cholecystectomy to prevent damage to the extrahepatic bile ducts by working out the methodological aspects of navigation technologies. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The analysis of literature data on various approaches to improve the perioperative identification of anatomical structures during laparoscopic cholecystectomy, including the ICG-fluorescent cholangiography, was carried out. This program was implemented during the provision of elective surgical care to 24 patients with cholelithiasis who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy with ICG-fluorescent navigation. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: The developed program included: preoperative assessment of the anatomy of the biliary tree using MRCP; intraoperative technique of safe laparoscopic cholecystectomy with mandatory application of the concept of «critical view of safety¼ (CVS), which allows the most effective identification of the necessary anatomical structures; the use of ICG-fluorescent cholangiography, which allows to improve the control of anatomical structures at all stages of the operations. CONCLUSIONS: The first experience of using ICG-fluorescent cholangiography testifies to the high informative value of the method, the possibility and prospects of integrating the technology into a comprehensive safety system during laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
