Abstract:
Prevention of postoperative splenic infarction in the robotic Warshaw technique requires rigorous evaluation of blood flow to the spleen. Shibuya and colleagues recommend checking: (1) conventional splenic color change, (2) intrasplenic artery waveform by ultrasound Doppler examination, (3) blood flow using indocyanine green, and (4) pulsatile regurgitation from the splenic artery.
