Abstract

Abstract Background Hepatic arterial infusion pump (HAIP) treatment is a technique used to treat liver localized malignancy with intra-arterial chemotherapy. Methylene blue is generally administered to verify hepatic perfusion and exclude inadvertent extrahepatic perfusion. The use of indocyanine green dye (ICG) combined with near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging during robot-assisted HAIP placement may be an attractive alternative by providing high contrast without blue discoloration of the operative field. Methods Data was collected retrospectively from 2 centers in the Netherlands. Intraoperative perfusion of the liver segments and extrahepatic perfusion were assessed using ICG/NIR as well as methylene blue on video imaging and correlated to postoperative 99 m-Tc perfusion scintigraphy. Results 13 patients underwent robot-assisted surgery for HAIP placement; median length of stay was 4 days, complications occurred in 4 patients. Hepatic perfusion showed identical patterns when ICG was compared with methylene blue. In 1 patient, additional extrahepatic perfusion was found using ICG, leading to further vessel ligation. Intraoperative ICG perfusion was concordant with 99 m-Tc perfusion scintigraphy. Discussion Liver and extrahepatic perfusion determined by ICG fluorescence imaging is concordant with blue dye perfusion and 99 m-Tc perfusion scintigraphy. Therefore, ICG fluorescence imaging is deemed a safe and reliable technique for perfusion testing during robot-assisted HAIP placement. Graphical abstract
