    Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging combined with intraoperative ultrasonography (IOUS) aids in laparoscopic excision of focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH).

  • 2

    Two patients with perivascular FNH lesions underwent successful wedge excision using ICG fluorescence, achieving negative surgical margins and minimal blood loss.

  • 3

    Preoperative ICG administration (0.5 mg/kg) allowed real-time fluorescence imaging, enhancing lesion delineation and margin assessment during surgery.

  • 4

    Incidental hyperfluorescent foci were noted on the liver surface; one showed benign changes, while the significance of others remains uncertain.

  • 5

    The report highlights the potential of ICG fluorescence in complex FNH cases, though further studies are necessary to evaluate its broader clinical applicability.
