ICG reduces the LN dissection noncompliance and locoregional recurrence, and improves DFS
The LN dissection noncompliance rate in the ICG group (41 of 129 patients [31.8%]) was lower than that in the non-ICG group (74 of 129 patients [57.4%]; The OS of pN0 patients with compliant and noncompliant lymphadenectomy were comparable (log-rank Further analysis (Supplementary Fig. Among the full cohort, there are no significant interactive effects between ICG and LN dissection compliance on OS and DFS (
