摘要：

Introduction. Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging system is a now a consolidated complementary technique for several surgical fields. The development of post transplant lymphocele following lymph spread could affect kidney function; between therapeutic options, the literature reports a 12% overall conversion rate from laparoscopic to open surgery with a major risk of damaging the urinary tract. Objective. The goal of the present study was to demonstrate that intraoperative ICG fluorescent imaging is a safe technique that can be used in laparoscopy establishing the exact location of the lymphocele and reducing intraoperative risks. Method. Fifty milligrams of ICG dissolved in 20 mL of saline solution was injected via percutaneous drainage placed into the lymphocele to decompress transplanted kidneys 2 weeks before a laparoscopic lymphocele marsupialization procedure. Results. During the first exploratory laparoscopy, in the flank and right iliac fossa, near the 2 renal grafts, fluorescence was identified in 3 raised areas that were the internal side of the lymphocele lobes. The lymphocele wall was dissected and 300 mL of serous fluid was aspirated after puncturing. A 5 cm breach was then made in the cyst wall using the Ultracision harmonic scalpel (Ethicon US). Afterwards, a pedicle of the omentum in the lymphocele core was interfered with and fixed by 2 stitches. Conclusions. Laparoscopic surgery seems to be the preferred surgical option for the treatment of primary symptomatic lymphocele after kidney transplantation. Intraoperative ICG fluorescent imaging is a safe technique to establish the exact location of the lymphocele and reduces the risk of damaging urinary structures during surgery.
