[Integration of ICG-fluorescence cholangiography into the safety system of laparoscopic cholecystectomy].

The Aim Of The Study: Is evaluating the possibility of integrating ICG-fluorescent cholangiography into the general safety system for laparoscopic cholecystectomy to prevent damage to the extrahepatic bile ducts by working out the methodological aspects of navigation technologies.

Materials And Methods: The analysis of literature data on various approaches to improve the perioperative identification of anatomical structures during laparoscopic cholecystectomy, including the ICG-fluorescent cholangiography, was carried out. This program was implemented during the provision of elective surgical care to 24 patients with cholelithiasis who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy with ICG-fluorescent navigation.

[Use of laparoscopic suturing devices in abdominal surgery].

The article deals with the results of clinical use of a laparoscopic suturing instrument in appendectomy in 2 patients with acute appendicitis. The authors describe the techniques of laparoscopic appendectomy with application of a mechanical suture to the mesentery and stump of the process. The advantages of this operation over the traditional interventions in acute appendicitis are shown: the absence of the pain syndrome after the operation, shorter duration of in-patient treatment, and the best cosmetic effect.
