A: Intraoperative laparoscopic view of the ascending colon with the standard light. The serosa surface color of the bowel appeared normal. B: The fluorescence system evidenced an hypo-perfused area at the level of the ascending colon. Perfused tissues are, in fact, highlighted with the bright yellow-green dye, whilst the ischemic tissues remain dark. (For interpretation of the references to colour in this figure legend, the reader is referred to the web version of this article.)
