NCT04266548

Brief Summary

More and more laparoscopic hepatectomy were performed due to increasing experience, well designed instruments and energy device. But the localization of tumor and resection line design are still relative difficult comparing open approach due to limit space. Intraoperative liver segmentation can be obtained by ultrasound-guide intraportal injection of a fluorophore and illuminating with a Near-Infrared light source for positive staining and by intravenous injection after ligation of segmental vessels for negative staining .The ultrasound guide intraportal injection approach is challenging in the minimally-invasive setting. However hepatocelluar carcinoma(HCC) was supplied by hepatic artery mainly. The investigators aimed to evaluate the feasibility of arterial base positive staining for fluorescence liver segmentation in human by superselective intra-hepatic artery injection of Indocyanine Green (ICG) .

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

  • Fluorescent hepatic segment demarcation area

    The surface size of fluorescent enhanced hepatic segment were measured as cm x cm .

    intra-operative period

  • the rate of fluorescent demarcation corresponding to US guide resection area

    The evaluation of the fluorescent hepatic surface which is included in the resected area or not

    intra-operative period

  • The minimal distance between tumor and fluorescent margin

    The distance between tumor edge and fluorescent parenchyma edge was measured as cm. This purpose was to evaluation the oncologic safety if the resection line is following the fluorescent margin

    intra-operative period

  • The minimal surgical margin

    The distance between tumor edge and resected parenchyma edge was measured as cm.

    intra-operative period

  • surgical benefit rate of fluorescent image

    If the fluorescent enhanced area is similar to resected parenchyma or the information of fluorescent image change the primary surgical plan, it was indicated benefit for surgery.

    intra-operative period

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Post operative complication

    one months after operation

  • Post operative angiography procedure complication

    one months after operation

  • Post operative hospital stay

    one months after operation

  • Post operative Mortality

    any complication related to surgery

Study Arms (1)

super-selective hepatic artery ICG injection group

EXPERIMENTAL

single arm for feasibility study of intra-hepatic artery base fluorescent segmental demarcation

Procedure: Superselective Intra-arterial Hepatic Injection of Indocyanine Green (ICG) for Fluorescence Image-guided Segmental Positive Staining

Interventions

The patients with single HCC which is planned to received laparoscopic hepatectomy were involved. Procedures were performed in conventional angiography room. The celiac trunk was catheterized and a microcatheter was advanced into segmental hepatic artery branches which supplied the HCC. The 5cc 0.125 mg/cc ICG was injected from super-selective hepatic artery in operative room. A Near-Infrared laparoscope was used to detect the fluorescent signal to assess the correspondence between arterial-based fluorescence demarcation and ultrasound-based surgical demarcation.
