Abstract
To evaluate the impact of indocyanine green fluorescence angiography on the incidence of colorectal anastomotic leakage. We summarized the results of non-comparative and randomized clinical trials, as well as meta-analyses. Indocyanine green fluorescence angiography changes the anastomosis site in 10% of patients due to inadequate blood supply to intestinal wall at the initially scheduled level. This method can decrease the incidence of «low» colorectal anastomosis leakage. Routine intraoperative fluorescence angiography with indocyanine green can become a standard method for prevention of colorectal anastomotic leakage.
