Core Tip

Core Tip: We used the PINPOINT fluorescent laparoscopic system intraoperatively. The fluorescence pattern provided by intravenous indocyanine green helped to suggest the final diagnosis and effectively guided surgical decision making, avoiding nephrectomy for benign renal tumors. In the fluorescence mode, we only blocked the ectopic blood vessels supplying the tumor, thus minimizing the loss of renal function.
