Indocyanine green fluorescence: an additional tool for endoscopic adrenalectomy

“…reported a case series of minimally invasive partial adrenalectomy among which three cases were performed with the help of ICG fluorescence. The authors used this dye to assess that the safety margin marked under US‐guidance is inside the well‐vascularized area of the adrenal gland and transection line has been oriented accordingly 11 . Furthermore, the authors claimed that the inspection of the adrenal remnant after 20 min from the administration of ICG is helpful in order to assess the venous drainage: in the cases of inadequate wash‐out, total adrenalectomy may be considered.…”
