Cutaneous port-site recurrence secondary to tumour seeding following implantation of an intraperitoneal chemotherapy access port for gastric cancer

摘要

Intraperitoneal chemotherapy has shown promising results for the treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis in gastric cancer. However, the implantation of an intraperitoneal chemotherapy port may be associated with catheter-related complications. The authors describe a case of cutaneous port-site recurrence secondary to tumour seeding from an intraperitoneal chemotherapy access port.
