Purpose/Background: The case of a 34-year-old female with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is presented, who was treated at a secondary level hospital in Tijuana Mexico using minimally invasive technology and indocyanine green, with favorable results.
Methods/Interventions: A 34-year-old female with a family history of first- and second-degree relatives with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) was assessed, although she did not undergo genetic testing she had a significant genetic risk for colon cancer.
colonoscopy diagnosed her with familial adenomatous polyposis affecting from the rectum to the cecum, with multiple biopsies showing tubular adenomas with low-grade dysplasia, as well as a gastric polyp negative for malignancy.
A video is presented in which a total oncological proctocolectomy is performed. Extracorporeal resection and J-pouch ileal construction are done, confirming its irrigation with ICG fluorescence. The pouch is stapled to the anus using a circular stapler, and irrigation is again observed with indocyanine green.
The surgery and follow up was made at Mexico's public health institute.
Results/Outcomes: Favorable postoperative outcome, with oral intake resuming at 24 hours and discharge at 72 hours without complications. Final histopathology revealed multiple tubular adenomas throughout the entire colon.
Conclusion/Discussion: The use of minimally invasive techniques and indocyanine green reduces complications in colorectal surgery, hospital stay, and anastomotic leaks. Proctocolectomy is a surgery associated with high morbidity, so the use of technology is necessary to avoid complications and improve survival rates in young patients.
