title: Port-site recurrence following laparoscopic para-aortic lymphadenectomy for squamous carcinoma of the cervix.
abstract: A port site tumour recurrence (PSR) followed laparoscopic para-aortic lymphadenectomy in a 46-year-old woman with stage IIb squamous carcinoma of the cervix. It occurred at the site used for removal of affected lymph nodes 7 months after surgery and completion of radiation and chemotherapy. It was associated with an increase in the size of tumour.
