Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical usefulness of determining the liver reserve function by estimating the retention rate of indocyanine green at fifteen minutes(ICGR15) before interventional chemoembolization in treating patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods Forty-three patients with HCC were enrolled in this study.Before interventional chemoembolization ICGR15 and Child-Pugh classification were estimated in all patients.Based on the ICGR15,the patients were divided into three groups.After chemoembolization,all the patients were divided into two groups according to liver function condition: group M(showing mild hepatic dysfunction) and group S(developing severe hepatic dysfunction).The occurrence of postoperative hepatic dysfunction and the difference in the hepatic function changes between three groups were analyzed.Results After interventional chemoembolization the occurrence of hepatic dysfunction were significantly different between three groups divided by ICGR15 test(P
