Abstract: Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the application of indocyanine green fluorescence navigation technology and three-dimensional visualization in laparoscopic precision surgery for patients with primary liver cancer (PLC). Methods A total of 114 patients with PLC were admitted to our hospital between January 2015 and December 2019, and were randomly divided into observation (n=57) and control group (n=57). The patients in the control received indocyanine green fluorescence navigation and laparoscopic hepatectomy and those in the combination received indocyanine green fluorescence navigation and laparoscopic hepatectomy under three-dimensional visualization. Serum cortisol (COR) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) were detected. Results The hospital stay were(6.9±2.3)d and (7.5±2.5)d (P>0.05) in the combination and control group, the satisfaction rates of fluorescent staining in the two groups were 91.2% and 91.2%(P>0.05), while the operation time and blood loss in the combination were (181.0±59.6)min and (96.9±21.7)ml, both significantly shorter or less than [(210.4±86.5)min and (106.3±25.0)ml, respectively,P<0.05] in the control; there was no significant differences as respect to the liver function tests between the two groups (P<0.05); after operation, serum COR and IL-6 levels in the combination were (264.3±33.8)mmol/L and (108.0±13.8)pg/ml, both significantly lower than [(288.0±34.5)mmol/L and (116.1±15.8)pg/ml, respectively, P<0.05] in the control; after operation, the incidences of bile leakage, pleural effusion and ascites, and fever in the two groups were 24.6% vs. 36.8%, without significant differences (P>0.05). Conclusion The application of indocyanine green fluorescence navigation technology and laparoscopic hepatectomy under three-dimensional visualization might help remove the tumors precisely and shorten operational times, which warrants more clinical observations.
