Introduction: The utility of intracystic administration of indocyanine green for near-infrared fluorescent cholangiography in acute calculous cholecystitis initially treated with percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) was described in this report.
Presentation Of Case: Two cases who underwent near-infrared fluorescent cholangiography guided interval laparoscopic cholecystectomy two weeks post-PTGBD were studied retrospectively. Both patients were diagnosed with moderate acute calculous cholecystitis based on diagnostic criteria of the Tokyo guidelines.
