Diagnostic laparoscopy with indocyanine green fluorescence test for the evaluation of intestinal perfusion in abdominal blunt injury: a case report

Our case underscores the efficacy of ICG fluorescence testing in assessing bowel viability and guiding surgical strategies in trauma patients with mesenteric hematoma. By facilitating real-time visualization of blood perfusion, ICG testing enables the adoption of conservative treatments in patients who would traditionally require more invasive surgical interventions, with minimal effect on operation time and cost.
