Abstract
High-output Chyle leak is a dreadful complication following neck dissection, posing challenges in management due to the morbidity associated with prolonged leakage. This case series describes the efficacy of a novel Indocyanine Green (ICG) Fluorescence-guided Robotic Transthoracic thoracic duct ligation technique in intractable high-output chyle leaks following neck dissection. Three patients with persistent high-output chyle leaks following neck dissection underwent robot-assisted thoracic duct ligation. Preoperative evaluation, surgical technique, postoperative care, outcomes and follow-up were recorded. All patients experienced successful resolution of chyle leaks with no intraoperative complications. Postoperative recovery was uneventful, and no recurrences were observed during the follow-up period. ICG-guided robotic transthoracic thoracic duct ligation is a safe and effective method for managing persistent high-output chyle leaks following neck dissection, offering a minimally invasive technique with favourable outcomes.
期刊介绍：
Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head & Neck Surgery was founded as Indian Journal of Otolaryngology in 1949 as a scientific Journal published by the Association of Otolaryngologists of India and was later rechristened as IJOHNS to incorporate the changes and progress.
IJOHNS, undoubtedly one of the oldest Journals in India, is the official publication of the Association of Otolaryngologists of India and is about to publish it is 67th Volume in 2015. The Journal published quarterly accepts articles in general Oto-Rhino-Laryngology and various subspecialities such as Otology, Rhinology, Laryngology and Phonosurgery, Neurotology, Head and Neck Surgery etc.
The Journal acts as a window to showcase and project the clinical and research work done by Otolaryngologists community in India and around the world. It is a continued source of useful clinical information with peer review by eminent Otolaryngologists of repute in their respective fields. The Journal accepts articles pertaining to clinical reports, Clinical studies, Research articles in basic and applied Otolaryngology, short Communications, Clinical records reporting unusual presentations or lesions and new surgical techniques. The journal acts as a catalyst and mirrors the Indian Otolaryngologist’s active interests and pursuits. The Journal also invites articles from senior and experienced authors on interesting topics in Otolaryngology and allied sciences from all over the world.
The print version is distributed free to about 4000 members of Association of Otolaryngologists of India and the e-Journal shortly going to make its appearance on the Springer Board can be accessed by all the members.
Association of Otolaryngologists of India and M/s Springer India group have come together to co-publish IJOHNS from January 2007 and this bondage is going to provide an impetus to the Journal in terms of international presence and global exposure.
