- Abstract
We herein describe a case of laparoscopic surgery for an esophageal duplication cyst using a near‐infrared indocyanine green fluorescence system. A 64‐year‐old woman with a cystic tumor adjacent to the esophagogastric junction was referred to our hospital for treatment. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy and abdominal CT revealed a 70‐mm submucosal tumor derived from the abdominal esophagus. We performed laparoscopic resection and then evaluated the tissue perfusion of the abdominal esophagus by using a near‐infrared indocyanine green fluorescence system. A Dor fundoplication was performed to prevent postoperative gastroesophageal reflux disease and reinforce the mucosal layer defect. The postoperative course was uneventful, and pathological evaluation confirmed that the tumor was an esophageal duplication cyst. The patient did not develop recurrence in the 24 months after surgery. We have demonstrated that laparoscopic resection of an esophageal duplication cyst may be performed effectively with intraoperative assessment of tissue perfusion using a near‐infrared indocyanine green fluorescence system.
