ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Laser speckle flowgraphy (LSFG) is a noninvasive method for quantitative evaluation of blood flow using the mean blur rate (MBR) as the blood flow index. We investigated whether LSFG can intraoperatively detect the demarcation line after vessel dissection and reduce the incidence of anastomotic leakage (AL).METHODS:
This study included 36 patients who underwent left-sided colorectal surgery. First, we compared the demarcation line (determined by LSFG) with the transection line (TL) at which the marginal vessels were divided. We then measured the MBR on both sides of the TL to determine where the MBR changed significantly. We investigated the presence or absence of significant differences between the MBR on the proximal side and that on the distal side of the TL. Finally, we retrospectively compared the patient characteristics and AL rates in the LSFG group (n = 36) and control group (n = 87).RESULTS:
In total, 58.3% (21/36) of the demarcation lines determined by LSFG matched the TL. The median distance between the demarcation line determined by LSFG and the TL was 0.0 mm (0.0-12.1 mm). The MBR sharply decreased at the TL in 80.6% (29/36) of cases. The median MBR was significantly lower on the distal than proximal side. The AL rate was not significantly lower in the LSFG group than in the control group.CONCLUSION:
LSFG accurately detected the demarcation line during surgery. However, LSFG did not reduce the incidence of AL.Palabras clave
