Indocyanine Green Videoangiography of Optic Cavernous Angioma -Case Report-

Abstract: The intraoperative findings of an indocyanine green videoangiography (ICG-VAG) study of a cavernous angioma located in the optic chiasm are reported. A 23-year-old Japanese man suddenly developed visual field loss, and magnetic resonance imaging suggested the presence of a suprasellar tumor in contact with the optic chiasm. Preoperative angiography did not clearly show any tumor shadow. Right fronto-temporal craniotomy was performed, and an aggregation of blood vessels was seen on the right surface of the opti… Show more

“…Removed angioma was observed under a microscope (c). Slight fluorescence remained to be detected even after resection (d) infusion [11]. However, staining by ICG was observed late after surrounding veins were fully stained, and peaked at 75-232 s after the visualization of adjacent arteries.…”

“…ICG is frequently of limited use for deep-seated lesions that must be approached through a long, narrow corridor because the signal can be low [8]. It is necessary to increase the sensitivity of fluorescence detection to visualize small deep-seated lesions properly [9,11]. The level of staining on ICG-VAG is not always uniform in CCMs, and may be affected by factors related to the procedure as well as flow dynamics.…”

“…Overall 3 studies were published about cavernomas [44][45][46]. The largest spinal series is by Endo et al who published a retrospective review of 8 cases who had undergone surgery for intramedullary cavernomas, concluding that ICG provided useful information about lesion margins and associated venous anomalies [45].…”
