ABSTRACT
Indocyanine green (ICG) has been used as a novel tracer for mapping lymph nodes in navigation surgeries for many malignant tumors. Recently, ICG is mainly applied in sentinel lymph node biopsy for early gastric cancer, while its application in advanced gastric cancer is less reported. It was reported that application of ICG in locating perigastric lymph nodes could elevate the efficiency of lymphadenectomy for advanced gastric cancer. Besides, recognizing small lymph nodes and dissecting certain lymph node stations are its unique advantages. However, some problems remain unsolved, as few relevant research has been done. Based on conceptions of minimal invasive and precision medicine, ICG may play an important role in improving the accuracy of laparoscopic surgery for advanced gastric cancer in the future.
