Abstract: Objective To evaluate fusion indocyanine green fluorescence imaging in laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy.Methods The clinical data of 75 liver cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic anatomic hepatectomy (LAH) at the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery,Henan Provincial People's Hospital from Apr 2017 to Sep 2018 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were divided into the indocyanine green fluorescence fusion imaging technique (FIGFI-LAH) group (35 cases) and laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy (LAH) group (40 cases).Results Pathologically positive margin was found in 1 case in FIGFI-LAH group and 9 cases in LAH group (x2 =4.649,P =0.031).There were no significant differences in the mean operative time,intraoperative blood loss,blood transfusion rate,and rate of conversion to open surgery (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The use of FIGFI technique in laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy for liver cancer effectively reduces the positive rate of surgical margin.
