Abstract
Aim: Differentiating granulomas from cancerous tissue poses a significant challenge in upper urinary tract surgery. We present the case of a 62-year-old male with a gelatin-based matrix (SurgifloTM) granuloma in the kidney following renal cyst decortication eight years earlier.Methods: Contrast-enhanced abdominal tomography revealed a Bosniak type-4 cyst at the previous operation site. The patient underwent laparoscopic partial nephrectomy with near-infrared imaging.Results: The lesion presented as hypofluorescent relative to normal kidney tissue. Histopathological examination revealed a foreign body granuloma due to unabsorbed Surgiflo.Conclusion: The fluorescence pattern could not distinguish a Surgiflo granuloma from a malignant lesion of the kidney.
期刊介绍：
Minimally Invasive Therapy and Allied Technologies (MITAT) is an international forum for endoscopic surgeons, interventional radiologists and industrial instrument manufacturers. It is the official journal of the Society for Medical Innovation and Technology (SMIT) whose membership includes representatives from a broad spectrum of medical specialities, instrument manufacturing and research. The journal brings the latest developments and innovations in minimally invasive therapy to its readers. What makes Minimally Invasive Therapy and Allied Technologies unique is that we publish one or two special issues each year, which are devoted to a specific theme. Key topics covered by the journal include: interventional radiology, endoscopic surgery, imaging technology, manipulators and robotics for surgery and education and training for MIS.
