Application of ICG fluorescence imaging in surgical treatment of recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma / 中国实用外科杂志

ABSTRACT

The recurrence rate of primary hepatocellularcarcinoma is very high,and repetitive resection is still the besttreatment for operable recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma.Indocyanine green(ICG) has been widely used andpopularized in resection of hepatocellular carcinoma,providesmore possibilities and diversity for the surgical treatment ofrecurrent hepatocellular carcinoma. Combined withpreoperative imaging,three-dimensional imaging technologyand intraoperative ultrasound,ICG can effectively improve theradical and accuracy of the operation for recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma. ICG-guided hepatectomy isappropriate for the new concept and technical system of liversurgery advocated by modern medical model, and realizesfunctional and anatomical hepatectomy for recurrenthepatocellular carcinoma.
