Abstract Background There are many reports of port site recurrence after laparoscopic surgery for various types of cancer. However, only two cases of port site recurrence after laparoscopic pancreatectomy have been reported to date. We herein report a case of port site recurrence after laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy. Case presentation A 73-year-old woman was diagnosed with pancreatic tail cancer and underwent laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy. Histopathological examination revealed pancreatic ductal carcinoma (pT1N0M0 pStage I). The patient was discharged on postoperative day 14 with no complications. However, 5 months after surgery, computed tomography showed a small tumor at the right abdominal wall. No distant metastasis had appeared after 7 months of follow-up. Under the diagnosis of port site recurrence without any other metastases, we resected this abdominal tumor. Histopathological examination showed port site recurrence of pancreatic ductal carcinoma. No recurrence was observed 15 months postoperatively. Conclusions This is the report of successful resection of port site recurrence of pancreatic cancer. |
