Early Experience with Intraoperative Leak Test Using a Blend of Methylene Blue and Indocyanine Green During Robotic Gastric Bypass Surgery

ConclusionsLeak tests using a blend of MB and ICG appear to be more sensitive for small defect detection of gastrojejunal anastomoses during robotic gastric bypass surgery. Larger datasets and research that is more stringent are needed to determine the exact clinical value of this new method.
