Abstract
A 66-year-old man underwent hand-assisted laparoscopic radical nephrectomy (HALN) for a 10 x 7-cm, stage T(2)N(0)M(0) right-sided renal-cell carcinoma. Nine months later, tumor recurrence was noted at the previous hand port site. This is the first case report of such a metastasis. Possible mechanisms for tumor metastasis are reviewed, and preventive strategies are suggested.Entities:
