Официальное название
Randomized Phase II Study to Compare Intraoperative Indocyanine Green (ICG) Imaging and Guided Mucosal Debridement vs Observation (Standard of Care) to Reduce the Fistula Rate in Patients Undergoing Salvage Laryngectomy
Обзор
A laryngectomy involves removing the voice box from the throat. After the voice box has been removed from the throat, the surgeon sews the throat closed. Sometimes part of the throat does not heal and saliva runs out of the throat. This is called a fistula. When a fistula happens, healing takes longer and patients will have to wait to eat and start speaking. The test in this research project is called ICG scan (indocyanine green) and tells the surgeon how much blood is flowing to different parts of the throat. If the test shows that there are parts of your throat that have low blood flow, which will delay healing. Only half of the patients in the study will get the ICG scan. This is so the patients who had the ICG scan can be compared to the patients that did not have the ICG scan to determine if the ICG scan really helps decrease fistulas.
Подробное описание
Salvage laryngectomy is associated with the highest morbidity and mortality in head and neck cancer patients. Pharyngocutaneous fistula is one of the most common surgical complication in the patient population and affects up to a third of patients undergoing total laryngectomy (TL) and pharyngolaryngectomy (PL). PCF is associated to increased rates of wound infections, prolonged hospitalization and vascular embarrassment (rupture and hemorrhage from major vessels). The use of vascularized flaps to assist in the reconstruction of the pharynx after laryngectomy have reduced the severity of complications patients experience after salvage laryngectomy. There is now interest in the quality of the vascular supply of the recipient pharyngeal tissue (pharyngeal mucosa). It is possible that vascular imaging of the recipient pharyngeal mucosa would provide the surgeon with intraoperative information that could guide pharyngeal mucosal debridement to remove any remaining pharyngeal tissue that has marginal vascularity (viability).
Initially developed in the 1950's, ICG imaging was used to assess retinal perfusion. Imaging acquisition with ICG uses a near-infrared wavelength (835nm) laser detection system. ICG imaging can also be used to direct debridement of marginally viable tissue. This approach has significantly reduced wound complications in patients undergoing breast reconstruction and colorectal surgery. ICG imaging has thus been found to be a reliable predictor of mucosal viability. Perfusion imaging studies in colorectal surgery, using laser fluorescence angiography, have shown a notable reduction in surgical revisions associated to anastomotic leaks, and a reduced hospitalization time. Preliminary reports in head and neck reconstructive surgery have shown an association between poor mucosal vascularity and higher fistula rate. In addition, ICG imaging and guided mucosal debridement suggest lower fistula rates.
We will be conducting a Phase II randomized trial study to assess the utility of ICG imaging for tissue perfusion, in order to reduce pharyngocutaneous fistula rate among patients undergoing salvage laryngectomy and vascularized tissue (flap) closure
