Near-infrared indocyanine green fluorescent cholangiography in urgent and emergency laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a preliminary study after propensity score-matched study

ConclusionsThe intra-operative use of NIFC showed a trend in the reduction of the rate of intra- and post-operative complications, the duration of surgery, and the length of hospital stay. ICG is a highly safe approach to urgent and emergency LC, as for elective LC, and could lead the surgeon to conduct the procedure more efficiently.
