Amol N Wagh, Nikhil Dhimole, Shirish R Bhagvat, Sachin S Sholapur, Samprati DoddamalappaJournal of Minimal Access Surgery 2022 18(2):317-319Mesenteric cysts are rare abdominal lesions in the mesentery of the intestine. Complete surgical excision is the only treatment which can be done by an open laparotomy or laparoscopic technique. Application of indocyanine green dye during the surgery helps in identification of the mesenteric vasculature, prevention and early repair of inadvertent iatrogenic vascular and bowel injury.
