The investigators present the case of a 40-year-old female underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Intraoperative indocyanine green test was performed

Interventions

DRUGIndocyanine green solution

5 ml of ICG were then injected intravenously to identify the stomach, carefully assessing the angle of His (preoperative written informed consent was obtained from the patient). Adequate perfusion was defined as the direct and clear visualization of the fluorescence around the gastric tube, after an estimated time of 150-180 s followingi.v. administration.
