Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To determine the anastomotic leak rates after intraoperative perfusion assessment of gastric or colonic conduits with ICG dye Timepoint: Immediately after surgery till 5th post operative day

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
2. Establishing the ideal time for intraoperative assessment of vascularity after injection of ICG dyeTimepoint: Intraoperative assessment;2. To determine the difference in qualitative assessment of gastric/colonic conduit vascularity by visual inspection and by ICG fluorescence imagingTimepoint: Intraoperative assessment;To assess the conduit margin revision rates with ICG fluorescence imaging at the proposed anastomotic site compared to visual assessment.Timepoint: Intraoperative assessment
