Indocyanine green is a sensitive adjunct in the identification and surgical management of local and metastatic hepatoblastoma

Abstract

ICG is a sensitive adjunct for identifying local and metastatic hepatoblastoma, including lesions not visualized on preoperative imaging, and delineating margins during liver resection. False positives limit specificity; however, there were no adverse outcomes from additional resections. We noted that thoracoscopic surgery can be completed safely in patients with less significant disease burden, and conversion to thoracotomy, if necessary, is straightforward.
