Abstract
Laparoscopic surgery has been widely implemented in the field of surgical oncology due to the numerous benefits such as rapid recovery and low level of traumatism at the level of the abdominal wall. Therefore, oncological patients will be referred to the oncology services and will be submitted to adjuvant therapies after a shorter period of time. However, in certain cases it has been stipulated that the laparoscopic approach might be associated with higher rates of adverse events such as port site metastases especially in cases presenting massive contamination such as peritoneal carcinomatosis from ovarian cancer. The aim of the current paper is to analyze whether in cases with cervical cancer there is a higher risk of port site metastases after laparoscopic approach.
