Indocyanine Green Angiography (ICG-A) is an imaging technique used to visualize tissue perfusion in real time. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to evaluate all published papers on breast reconstruction using ICG-A, which provides information on complication rates and to investigate whether the use of this peroperative method decreases the risk of complications.
