title: Possible first report of distant peritoneal metastases from a nodal mesenteric lymphoma after laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair.
abstract: Laparoscopic surgery has gained wide acceptance. However, there is still debate as to its role in assessment and staging of gastrointestinal malignancies(1)since it may promote dissemination of cancer cells.(2)We report the first case of a low-grade mesenteric nodal lymphoma for laparoscopic hernia repair, complicated by distant implants both on the peritoneum and wall mesh.
