| Abstract | Background: Urethral injury occurs in 1-6 % of male cases during minimally invasive surgery of lower rectal cancer. A Foley catheter emitting near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence of sufficient intensity has been expected to locate the urethra during image-guided surgery. Although it has been difficult to impart NIR fluorescent properties to biocompatible thermosetting polymers, we have recently succeeded in developing a NIR fluorescent compound for silicone rubber and a NIR fluorescent Foley catheter (HICARL). Here, we evaluated its NIR fluorescence properties and visibility performance using porcine anorectal isolation specimens. Methods: The HICARL catheter was made of a mixture of solid silicone rubber and a NIR fluorescent compound that emits fluorescence with a wavelength of 820-880 nm, while a conventional transparent Foley catheter was made of solid silicone rubber only. As a standard for comparison of the intensity of NIR fluorescence, a transparent Foley catheter the lumen of which was filled with a mixture of indocyanine green (ICG) and human plasma was used. As a comparison to assess the visibility performance of the HICARL catheter, a transparent Foley catheter into which a commercially available NIR fluorescent polyurethane ureteral catheter (NIRC) was placed was used. Results: A NIR fluorescence quantitative imaging analysis revealed that the Foley-NIRC catheter and the HICARL catheter emitted 3.42 ± 0.42 and 6.43 ± 0.07 times more fluorescence than the Foley-ICG catheter, respectively. The location of the HICARL catheter placed in the anorectum with a wall thickness of 3.8 ± 0.1 mm was clearly delineated in its entirety by NIR fluorescence, while that of the Foley-NIRC catheter was faintly or only partially visible. Conclusions: The HICARL catheter emitting NIR fluorescence of sufficient intensity is a promising and easy-to-use tool for urethral visualization during image-guided surgery of lower rectal cancer. |
