We assessed the correct pathway of lymphatic drainage during ileocolic iterative resection by the use of Indocyanine green (ICG) in a patient with a previous laparoscopic right hemicolectomy. A 63 years old man underwent laparoscopic right ileocolic re-resection for a high grade dysplasia of a large polyp close to the ileocolic anastomosis performed 8 years ago during a laparoscopic right hemicolectomy for a Tis of cecum. The peritumoral injection of ICG was performed at the beginning of the operation in order to correctly visualize the lymphatic pathway and then a lateral to medial approach dissection was carried out.
