Sodium fluorescein in pediatric neurosurgery: a systematic review with technical considerations and future perspectives.

Résumé

Background Sodium fluorescein (SF) is routinely used in several centers as a valid intraoperative adjunct in adult oncological neurosurgery. Its use in pediatric neurosurgery is increasing, although its role is not yet well-defined in children. We reviewed the current literature in order to evaluate the use of SF in children with CNS and PNS lesions. Methods For this systematic review, we searched PubMed, Scopus, and Embase databases, and forward and backward citations for studies published between database inception and July 31st, 2022. We included any article type or congress abstract adding at least a new case, without restrictions of language or publication status, concerning the use of SF in neurosurgical procedures in patients under 18 years of age. We excluded studies concerning purely vascular cases and cerebrospinal fluid leaks. Results Of 4094 records identified, 19 articles were eligible and included for further analysis. As per July 31st, 2022, at least 119 patients aged from 11 months to 17.9 years underwent surgery with SF. No serious adverse events were reported. A large variety of tumor types was operated, in most cases resected under the specific YELLOW 560 nm filter after a low-dose SF injection (2–5 mg/kg) at the end of anesthesia induction. SF was reported particularly useful in gangliogliomas and pilocytic astrocytomas. Discussion/conclusion Given its easy-to-use profile, low cost, and safety, SF seems to be a feasible and valid adjunct in the pediatric population when aiming at individuating a biopsy target or maximizing extent of resection, particularly in some tumor types. Further studies are required to strengthen the evidence on its impact on outcomes.
