Abstract:
With the continuous development of laparoscopic techniques and the concept of individualized treatment, laparoscopic surgery is also moving from "minimally invasive" to "minimally invasive plus precision" . Lymph node metastasis is one of the most important risk factors affecting the prognosis of gastric cancer (GC). Reasonable lymph node dissection has always been an important exploration direction in the field of GC surgery. In recent years, domestic and foreign studies have found that the new tracer, indocyanine green (ICG), can detect the lymphatic vasculature non-invasively, and more accurately display the perigastric lymph nodes, providing a new perspective in laparoscopic lymph node dissection for GC. Alternatively, since the application of ICG in laparoscopic gastrointestinal tumor surgery, especially in gastric cancer surgery is still in the early stage of exploration and experience accumulation, more high-level medical evidences are needed to evaluate its clinical value.
