Use of near-infrared indocyanine videoangiography and Flow 800 in the resectioning of a spinal cord haemangioblastoma

Abstract: Haemangioblastomas are hypervascularized tumours. Their surgical management requires a complete resectioning and a prompt handling of the vascular inlets and outlets. The use of intraoperative indocyanine green video angiography (ICG-VAG) depicts the precise vascular pattern for the surgeon. Its use is safe and easy, and the procedure can be repeated during the operation. Here we present a case of spinal haemangioblastoma treated with the aid of intraoperative ICG-VAG and the Flow 800 software. The use of the … Show more

“…38,41 Even less interest could be found in the context of surgery for brain tumors, where only cerebral and spinal hemangioblastomas have been studied. 6,20,37 In 2009 we acquired the technology to use the FLOW 800 algorithm for flow analysis in both vascular and tumor cases. We identified 73 tumor cases in which ICG-VA was used, and in which both surgical reports and videos were available for retrospective analysis, in patients treated between May 2011 and December 2017.…”

“…Furthermore, pathology that disrupts biliary excretion and the hypervascularity of certain tumors has allowed imaging of hepatobiliary cancer, including colorectal metastasis, hepatocellular carcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma . Other studies have also shown that it is possible using ICG to identify extrahepatic metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma , hepatic micrometastases of pancreatic cancer , hemangioblastomas and head and neck cancer , as well as for colonic tattooing of colorectal cancer and the assessment of anastomotic perfusion during colorectal surgery . In addition, ICG has been used in angiography for reconstructive surgery after oncologic surgery .…”
