Glowing dye could help prevent dangerous leaks after colon cancer surgery

NCT ID NCT07423130

Summary

This study tested whether using a special fluorescent dye during laparoscopic colon cancer surgery helps surgeons better see blood flow in the bowel. The goal was to see if this improved vision leads to fewer dangerous leaks where the bowel is reconnected after surgery. Researchers compared outcomes for 115 patients who had surgery with the dye to a similar group who had surgery without it.
