Indocyanine green fluorescence identification of the intersegmental plane by the target segmental vein-first single-blocking during thoracoscopic segmentectomy.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Innovative attempt to explore the feasibility and accuracy of using indocyanine green fluorescence (ICGF) to identify the intersegmental plane by the target segmental veins preferential ligation during thoracoscopic segmentectomy.

Methods

A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of 32 consecutive patients who underwent thoracoscopic segmentectomy with intersegmental plane identification using both ICGF and inflation-deflation method after target segmental veins prioritized blocking at Nanjing Chest Hospital from December 2022 to June 2023. Preoperative three-dimensional reconstruction was used to identify the target segment and the anatomical structure of the arteries, veins, and bronchi. After ligating the target segmental veins during surgery, the
