Background: Reconstruction with transverse colon-rectal anastomosis after an extended left hemicolectomy can be challenging. The Deloyers procedure, first described in 1964, comprises complete mobilization and rotation of the right colon, while maintaining the ileocolic artery, to achieve a well vascularized, tension-free colorectal anastomosis. We present a video of a laparoscopic Deloyers procedure with Indocyanin green (ICG) fluorescence as a useful adjunct.

We report a series of three cases, with mean 18-months follow up, in our institution where this technique was safely and effectively used in tandem with Hemodialysis Reliable Outflow (HeRO) graft for creation of upper limb vascular access in patients with TCVO. Although there have been reports describing the simultaneous combination of Surfacer and HeRO graft, to our knowledge, this is the first time where the outcomes with 18-months mean follow-up are reported.
