Prevention of Port-Site Metastasis in Gynecologic Malignancies

چکیده
Port-site metastasis is a major complication of surgical laparoscopy for gynecologic oncology and has been reported in literature with an incidence of 1.1 to 16%. Factors that contribute for development of port site can be divided in three categories: operative related, wound related and tumor related. With this review, the authors pretend to report the ideal surgical conditions, laparoscopic environment and means of prevention to decrease risk of port-site metastases in gynecologic malignancies.
