The article presents an overview of the literature of practical use of technology in mini-invasive endocrine surgery. There are represented studies performed with ICG fluorescence technique to intraoperative identification of anatomical structures in endosurgical interventions on the thyroid and parathyroid glands, thymus and adrenal glands. The advantages of a fluorescence study in detecting PTH during thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy, sentinel lymph nodes in case of thyroid cancer and for predicting the functional status of PTH in the postoperative period are reviewed. The overview noted many perspectives of ICG fluorescence technique in detecting adrenal masses and defining the resection volume of adrenal-sparing surgery. The current state of the studied issue has been reviewed, based on the first stage accumulated practical experience, and there have been defined a prospect of further implementation of the ICG fluorescence technology with infrared spectrum research in mini-invasive endocrine surgery.
