The data for this review were collected up to November 2023.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Results</h3><p>Thirty-two devices made by 19 medical companies were identified. Ten systems are surgical microscopes, 5 can be used for both open and minimally invasive surgery (MIS), 6 can only be used for open surgery, and 10 only for MIS. One is a fluorescence system available for the Da Vinci robot. Nineteen devices can provide an overlay between fluorescence and white light image. All devices are compatible with Indocyanine Green, the most common fluorescence dye used intraoperatively. There is significant variability in the hardware and software of each device, which resulted in different sensitivity, fluorescence intensity, and image quality. All devices are CE-mark regulated, and 30 were FDA-approved.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Conclusion</h3><p>There is a prolific market of devices for FGS and healthcare professionals should have basic knowledge of their technical specifications to use it at best for each clinical indication.

Acute and gangrenous cholecystitis increase the likelihood of conversion from MIS to open cholecystectomy. This study aims to examine patient and hospital factors underlying differential utilization of MIS vs open cholecystectomies indicated for acute cholecystitis.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Methods</h3><p>This is a retrospective, observational cohort study of patients with acute cholecystitis who underwent a cholecystectomy between 2016 and 2018 identified from the California Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development database. Univariate analysis and multivariable logistic regression models were used to analyze patient, geographic, and hospital variables as well as surgical approach.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Results</h3><p>Our total cohort included 53,503 patients of which 98.4% (n = 52,673) underwent an initial minimally invasive approach and with a conversion rate of 3.3% (n = 1,759). On multivariable analysis advancing age increased the likelihood of either primary open (age 40 to < 65 aOR 2.17; ≥ 65 aOR 3.00) or conversion to open cholecystectomy (age 40 to < 65 aOR 2.20; ≥ 65 aOR 3.15). Similarly, male sex had higher odds of either primary open (aOR 1.70) or conversion to open cholecystectomy (aOR 1.84). Hospital characteristics increasing the likelihood of either primary open or conversion to open cholecystectomy included teaching hospitals (aOR 1.37 and 1.28, respectively) and safety-net hospitals (aOR 1.46 and 1.33, respectively).</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Conclusions</h3><p>With respect to cholecystectomy, it is well-established that a minimally invasive surgical approach is associated with superior patient outcomes. Our study focused on the diagnosis of acute cholecystitis and identified increasing age as well as male sex as significant factors associated with open surgery. Teaching and safety-net hospital status were also associated with differential utilization of open, conversion-to-open, and MIS. These findings suggest the potential to create and apply strategies to further minimize open surgery in the setting of acute cholecystitis.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical Abstract</h3>\u0000","PeriodicalId":501625,"journal":{"name":"Surgical Endoscopy","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142257869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
