TLDR
This method was useful for resecting US-invisible hepatic tumors that cannot be identified on routine ultrasonography (US) and performed hepatic resection while observing the fluorescence.
Abstract
Purpose For hepatic tumors that cannot be identified on routine ultrasonography (US), we marked the target area using real-time virtual sonography (RVS) with indocyanine green (ICG)–ethanol (1:100) during surgery, and performed hepatic resection while observing the fluorescence.

Rescue surgery for unresectable colorectal liver metastases downstaged by chemotherapy: a model to predict long-term survival.

TL;DR: Modern chemotherapy allows 12.5% of patients with unresectable CRLM to be rescued by liver surgery, with a wide use of repeat hepatectomies and extrahepatic resections, and four preoperative risk factors could select the patients most likely to benefit from this strategy.

TL;DR: Liver resection is able to offer long-term survival to patients with multiple colorectal metastases provided that the metastatic disease is controlled by chemotherapy prior to surgery.

Real-time identification of liver cancers by using indocyanine green fluorescent imaging

TL;DR: Fluorescent imaging using indocyanine green (ICG) has the potential to detect liver cancers through the visualization of the disordered biliary excretion of ICG in cancer tissues and noncancerous liver tissues compressed by the tumor.
