Port-site metastasis as a primary complication following diagnostic laparoscopy of fallopian tube carcinoma

摘要

Rationale:Fallopian tube carcinoma is a rare female genital cancer with no specific clinical and surgical features. It is hardly diagnosed on imaging due to non-specific presentation. Laparoscopy has been recommended as the diagnostic procedure for the assessment of suspicious ovarian and adnexal masses. However, it has brought new complications like tumor recurrences at the trocar insertion sites, called port-site metastasis (PSM).
