We evaluated the postoperative course of 50 patients who underwent hepatic resection, using the ratio of indocyanine green (ICG) retention rates measured on the third postoperative day to values estimated immediately after the operation. This ratio was expressed as the remnant liver ICG index. Group A included 22 patients with a remnant liver ICG index of less than 1.0, which meant that the ICG treatment rate at 15 minutes on the third postoperative day showed improvement, compared to events immediately after the operation. In group B, there were 28 patients whose index on the third postoperative day was over 1.0, thereby indicating exacerbation of the ICG clearance rate after hepatic resection. Serious complications including intraabdominal sepsis and hyperbilirubinemia occurred postoperatively in 2 (9.1%) in group A and 16 (57.1%) in group B (P < 0.001). One patient (4.5%) in group A died, while 9 patients (32.1%) in group B died during hospitalization (p < 0.02). There were no significant differences with regard to preoperative liver function and clinical parameters. These observations suggest that improvement in the ICG clearance rate on the third postoperative day, compared to that immediately after the operation, is useful to predict the postoperative course of hepatectomized patients.
