Cover Story: A systematic review of the literature was performed to assess NIR–ICG during laparoscopy for benign gynecologic conditions. In endometriosis patients, NIR–ICG improves the visualization of endometriotic lesions and ureters, the surgical decision-making process with assessment of ureteral perfusion after conservative surgery and bowel perfusion during recto-sigmoid endometriosis nodule surgery. In non-endometriosis patients, NIR–ICG allows evaluating vaginal cuff perfusion during total hysterectomy and ovarian perfusion in adnexal torsion. View this paper
