Practicing changing cases using ICG technology in Breast Reconstruction by Sanjay Warrier in BJSTR

Abstract

SPY Elite technology utilizes ICG angiography and is a method of intra-operative tissue perfusion assessment. In breast reconstructive surgery, knowledge of skin flap perfusion can assist intra-operative decision making. Altering the surgical plan accordingly can decrease the risk of ischemic complications. The current case series includes six mastectomy and complex reconstructive operative cases that utilized SPY Elite technology. The cases demonstrate how SPY Elite assessment led to changes in intra-operative decision making in a group of predominantly high risk patients.
