9 July 2025

We are pleased to announce the online publication in European Journal of Pediatric Surgery Reports of a new study resulting from a collaboration between Printmed 3D (https://printmed-3d.com) and the Pediatric Surgery Unit at Buzzi Children’s Hospital, Milan.

“Advancing Neuroblastoma Surgery Through the Clinical Integration of Virtual Reality (VR) and Indocyanine Green (ICG) Fluorescence-Guided Imaging: A Case Report” (https://www.thieme-connect.de/products/ejournals/pdf/10.1055/a-2646-8880.pdf).

The article highlights how integrating Virtual Reality, which allows preoperative immersion in the patient’s three-dimensional anatomy, and ICG fluorescence imaging can improve surgical safety and precision in pediatric neuroblastoma procedures, reducing complications and improving surgical and survival outcomes.
