Area of Science:

  • Pulmonology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Thoracoscopic wedge resection is a minimally invasive surgical technique for lung lesions.
  • Accurate localization of small pulmonary ground-glass opacities (GGOs) can be challenging.
  • Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging offers potential for enhanced intraoperative visualization.

Observation:

  • A clinical case utilized indocyanine green (ICG) inhalation for intraoperative NIR fluorescence visualization of GGOs.
  • ICG was administered via nebulized inhalation (0.25 mg/kg) 85 minutes prior to thoracoscopic surgery.
  • The NIR fluorescence imaging system guided the thoracoscopic wedge resection in real-time.

Findings:

  • Nebulized ICG successfully enabled visualization of a small GGO as a filling defect in fluorescence.
  • The NIR fluorescence navigation system clearly delineated the tumor margin with high contrast.
  • This technique facilitated precise localization and resection of the pulmonary lesion.

Implications:

  • Indocyanine green inhalation is a promising method for intraoperative GGO visualization in thoracoscopic surgery.
  • NIR fluorescence guidance can improve surgical precision and potentially reduce damage to lung function.
  • This approach may enhance outcomes for patients undergoing lung wedge resections.
