Beneficial impact of indocyanine green fluorescence imaging on lymphadenectomy in laparoscopic total gastrectomy for advanced upper gastric cancer
ICG fluorescence imaging significantly improved lymphadenectomy precision during LTG for advanced upper gastric cancer, particularly in suprapancreatic nodal stations, and enhanced detection of metastatic LNs. However, no obvious survival benefit was observed within the limited follow-up period. Future prospective, multicenter studies are warranted to validate these results.
