    Splanchnic blood flow is crucial for recovery after colorectal surgery, with impaired perfusion linked to anastomotic leakage.

  • 2

    Indocyanine green (ICG) technologies, including peripheral pulse spectrophotometry and fluorescence angiography, enhance perioperative perfusion assessment.

  • 3

    This study utilized ICG-PPS and ICGFA to evaluate splanchnic perfusion at various perioperative stages in colorectal surgery patients.

  • 4

    Measurements of ICG clearance correlate with hepatosplanchnic perfusion, aiding in the identification of patients at risk for postoperative complications.

  • 5

    The study's findings suggest improved outcomes in colorectal surgery when utilizing ICG technologies for real-time perfusion monitoring.
