Inguinal lymph node dissection in the era of minimally invasive surgical technology
2023, Urologic Oncology: Seminars and Original InvestigationsCitation Excerpt :The boundaries of the dissection and surgical steps are similar to VEIL procedure described above. Several studies describe the use of near-infrared fluorescence technology available in the da Vinci (Intuitive Surgical, Sunnyvale, CA) Xi platform (FireFly) to assist in node identification [18–20]. When using this technology, Indocyanine green (ICG) dye (0.5–5 ml) is injected subcutaneously or intradermally near the previous tumor site or the base of the penis (if penectomy has occurred) prior to start of the surgery.
Future Platforms of Robotic Surgery
2022, Urologic Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :The widespread use of this technology has enabled more meticulous partial nephrectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection for prostate cancer.99 Several other innovative uses are microdissection of testicular and vessels for chronic orchialgia100; inguinal lymphadenectomy with a partial penectomy101; prevention of digestive fistulas and ureteral strictures in ileal neobladders102; and exceptional detection of lymph nodes in combination with a gamma probe for prostate cancer.103 Tissue-specific fluorescent-tagged antibodies (fluorophobes) can target specific tumor cells and help surgeons visualize cancer in real time.
Robot-assisted endoscopic inguinal lymphadenectomy: A review of current outcomes
2021, Asian Journal of UrologyCitation Excerpt :Since the first RAIL described in 2009 and the relative rarity of this disease, small reports have been published suggesting feasibility, acceptable OT, low estimated blood loss (EBL), short LOS, proper amount of lymph nodes retrieved and promising postoperative outcomes, especially regarding few rates of complications [21,22,24–28]. Of note, two from this previously reports described also initial experience with the use of near-infrared fluorescence imaging (NIRF) using indocyanine green (ICG) to facilitate lymph node identification during robotic groin dissection for PSCC [26,28]. Hereafter, results from the three largest series are presented and their weighted means are evaluated.
Indocyanine Green (ICG) in Urologic Surgery
2019, UrologyCitation Excerpt :In 2018, Sávio et al also published a demonstrational video in Urology, but showed a combined partial penectomy with robotic inguinal lymphadenectomy using ICG NIRF. This surgery similarly had minimal morbidity and avoided the need for a two-stage procedure.48 Of course, further prospective, randomized controlled studies are needed to show the efficacy of this procedure (Fig. 1; Table 1).
Comprehensive Assessment of Indocyanine Green Usage: One Tracer, Multiple Urological Applications
2018, European Urology FocusCitation Excerpt :To specifically visualize the SNs and to prevent contamination of the surgical field during resection, ICG can be bound to a carrier before injection, for example, 99mTechnetium (Tc)-nanocolloid, yielding ICG-99mTc-nanocolloid [5]. Fluorescence guidance has been studied as a tool during the nodal dissection in prostate [5] and penile cancer [6]. In prostate cancer, three different nodal templates of drainage can be distinguished with dominant nodal drainage via the umbilical ligament and internal iliac regions [7].
