[Pre-and postoperative indocyanine green retention rate as a marker of liver functional reserve in cirrhotic patients].

Indocyanine green ICG retention rate was determined before and after in portohypertensive cirrhotic patients undergoing paracardial devascularization (PCDV) and side-to-side mesocaval shunt (MCs-ss). The relationship between ICG retention rate with serum albumin level and the incidence of ascites was investigated no significant change the rate was noted before and after. Operation in PCDV patients. Significant increase of the rate was observed after MCs-ss. There was a negative correlation between the rate and serum albumin level. Addition the incidence of ascites increased with the elevation of the rate, there was a significant difference in the rate in patients with or without ascites.
