The rate of port-site metastases after 2251 laparoscopic procedures in women with underlying malignant disease.

摘要: Abstract Background The aim was to describe the rate of laparoscopic trocar-related subcutaneous tumor implants in women with underlying malignant disease. Methods An analysis a prospective database all patients undergoing transperitoneal procedures for conditions performed by gynecologic oncology service. Results Between July 1991 and April 2007, were 1694 intraabdominal condition 505 breast cancer risk-reducing, diagnostic or therapeutic without Port-site metastases documented 20 (1.18%) who underwent condition. Of these, 15 had diagnosis epithelial ovarian fallopian tube carcinoma, 2 cancer, cervical 1 uterine cancer. Nineteen (95%) simultaneous carcinomatosis other sites at time port-site metastasis. Patients developed within 7 months from procedure median survival 12 months whereas metastasis >7 months 37 months ( P =0.004). No recurrence Conclusion implantation after disease is low almost always occurs setting synchronous, advanced distant metastatic presence surrogate should not be used as an argument against surgery malignancies.
