NCT02383628

Brief Summary

The main objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of indocyanine green (ICG) endoscopy to evaluate tissue perfusion during endoscopic neurosurgery. This includes patients with pituitary and intracranial tumors and treatment of vascular abnormalities such as aneurysms and compressive syndromes. ICG will be evaluated to determine the value of the additional visual information supplied during the treatment of these pathologies.

Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patient population would include those patients with pituitary tumors, intracranial tumors, aneurysms, and normal tissue adjacent to tumors to clarify normal from abnormal. Also, patients with compressive syndromes to ensure patency of normal vessels. This would be all patients undergoing endoscopic surgery, both endonasal and open (retromastoid or transcranial).

You may qualify if:

  • Patient population would include those patients with pituitary tumors, intracranial tumors, aneurysms, and normal tissue adjacent to tumors to clarify normal from abnormal. Also, patients with compressive syndromes to ensure patency of normal vessels. This would be all patients undergoing endoscopic surgery, both endonasal and open (retromastoid or transcranial).

You may not qualify if:

  • Less than 18 years of age
  • Iodine allergy
  • Shellfish allergy
  • Contrast allergy
  • Previous anaphylactic reaction to ICG
  • Pregnant
  • Anyone with any evidence of renal or hepatic dysfunction
