This study evaluates the use of indocyanine green to predict postoperative pancreatic leaks in patients undergoing transection of the pancreas.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To determine if altered measurement results of ICG after pancreatectomy is associated with leak rates. OUTLINE: This is an observational study. Patients receive indocyanine green intravenously (IV) during surgery, undergo imaging and have their medical records reviewed on study.

RECRUITINGIncidence of biochemical leak or fistula after pancreatectomy.
Measurement of drain fluid amylase in post operative period. Defined by definitions of the International Study Group on Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) criteria
Time frame: Up to 30 days after surgery
Perfusion status
Measured by Indocyanine green (ICG) metrics.
Time frame: During surgical intervention (hours)
Leak grade via ISGPS classification
Can be either bile leak, Grade B postoperative pancreatic fistula or grade C postoperative pancreatic fistula
Time frame: Up to 30 days after surgery
Leak grade by ICG metrics
ISGPS classification of leak or fistula and the perfusion metrics measures by ICG.
Time frame: Up to 30 days after surgery
Best practice usage of ICG for pancreatic surgery
Measures through verbal survey to surgeons or OR members
Time frame: Assessed at surgery number 15, approximate 6 months
