ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of indocyanogen green retention rate (ICGR) measurement and Child-Pugh classification of liver function in the preoperative evaluation of hepatic functional reservation. MethodsThe level of ICGR at 15 min (ICGR15) and the percentage of liver fibrosis in 103 patients with liver cancer were measured before hepatectomy, and the Child-Pugh classification of liver function was evaluated before and after the operations, and their connections were analyzed. ResultsAs the rise of Child-Pugh classification of liver function, the percentage of liver fibrosis increased gradually, there were significant differences between any two Child-Pugh classification (P lt;0.05). There was a linear correlation between the ICGR15 and the liver fibrosis percentage (rs=0.960, P lt;0.05). The value of preoperative ICGR15 in patients with postoperative Child-Pugh classification from grade A to grade B or grade B to grade C was gnificantly higher than that in patients with stabilization of Child-Pugh classification before and after operations (P lt;0.05). ConclusionICGR15 combined with Child-Pugh classification can improve the accuracy for the evaluation of preoperative hepatic functional reservation.
