Brief Summary:
Anastomotic leak is a devastating complication of colorectal surgery. There is no widespread means of assessing the viability of a laparoscopic anastomosis. The investigators described recently the feasibility of microvascularisation assessment with near-infra red technology (NIR).
The aim of this study is to look at the implementation of this technique in a wider prospective series of patients undergoing colorectal resection.
Detailed Description:
Multicentric prospective study of 260 consecutive patients undergoing colonic resection and being assessed during the course of surgery for microvascularisation.
After vessel division and after colorectal anastomosis, indocyanine green (2.5mg/ml) is injected intravenously and anastomotic microvascularisation assessed with the PinPoint NIR system (Novadaq, Vancouver, Canada).
Study primary endpoint is the anastomotic leak rate Secondary endpoint are peroperative and post-operative complications according to the Clavien Dindo scale, time of the procedure and time to record a signal as well as any change of the procedure.
This study will be performed on 3 different sites Geneva, Oxford and Dublin University Hospitals
