Indocyanine Green
Interventions
Drug: Indocyanine Green Tracer
Registration Number
NCT03050879
Lead Sponsor
Fujian Medical University
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to explore the clinical outcomes of Indocyanine Green Tracer using in laparoscopic gastrectomy with lymph node dissection for gastric adenocarcinoma(cT1-4a, N-/+, M0).

Detailed Description

Indocyanine Green Tracer is often applied in surgery for early gastric adenocarcinoma. Its application in laparoscopic gastrectomy with lymph node dissection for gastric adenocarcinoma is at the stage of cases accumulation, method studying and clinical research. There is no prospective studies to identify the clinical outcomes of Indocyanine Green Tracer using in laparoscopic gastrectomy with lymph node dissection for gastric adenocarcinoma.

On the basis of more than 3000 cases of laparoscopic gastrectomy with lymph node dissection for gastric adenocarcinoma, we want to apply the Indocyanine Green Tracer, a cheap, easy to operate and no radiation pollution way, to predict the positive lymph nodes in gastric adenocarcinoma, to guid the scope of laparoscopic lymph node dissection for gastric adenocarcinoma.

Number of Metastasis Lymph Nodes14 days

Compare number of positive lymph nodes in both group.

Metastasis rate of lymph node14 days

Compare metastasis rate of lymph node in both group

Morbidity and mortality rates30 days

This is for the early postoperative complication and mortality, which defined as the event observed within 30 days after surgery.

3-year disease free survival rate36 months

disease-free survival was defined as the time from surgery to the time of recurrence or death from any cause

3-year recurrence pattern36 months

Recurrence patterns are classified into five categories at the time of first diagnosis: locoregional, hematogenous, peritoneal, distant lymph node, and mixed type.

Incision length1 day
The results of endoscopy3, 6, 9 and 12 months

The incidence of reflux esophagitis under the endoscopy on postoperative 3 and 12 months are used to access the postoperative quality of life.

The variation of body temperature8 days

The daily highest body temperature in degree centigrade before discharge are recorded to access the inflammatory and immune response.

The rate of fluorescence14 days

The number of fluorescent lymph node in experimental group is divided by the total number of lymph nodes in active experimental group

Positive rate14 days

The number of positive lymph nodes in fluorescent lymph nodes is divided by the number of total fluorescent lymph nodes in experimental group

The variation of cholesterol3, 6, 9 and 12 months

The variation of cholesterol in millimole/liter on postoperative 3, 6, 9 and 12 months are used to access the postoperative nutritional status and quality of life.
