Tumor implantation after diagnostic laparoscopic biopsy of serous ovarian tumors of low malignant potential.
Two cases of tumor implants occurring in the abdominal trocar sites after diagnostic laparoscopic biopsies of ovarian papillary serous tumors of low malignant potential are presented. To the authors' knowledge, there have been no previous reports to describe tumor implants in the abdominal trocar sites after diagnostic laparoscopic biopsies of ovarian tumors of low malignant potential.
