During the previous nine years, stories of 'port-site' deposits following laparoscopic surgical procedure for malignancy, specifically laparoscopic resection of colonic melanoma, have forged a shadow at the knowledge of the laparoscopic procedure within the surgical guy­ agement in sufferers with melanoma. these experiences of port-site deposits, a few ninety instances pronounced within the literature as much as 1999, have opened a 'can of worms' and highlighted the shortage of our wisdom on melanoma mobile migration from good tu­ mors and the standards that underlie their winning implantation in surgical wounds either within the presence and lack of a good strain pneumoperito­ neum. The jury is out even when it comes to the impact of the therapeutic surgical entry wound - do the biochemical and mobile fix strategies and the linked progress components improve or hinder implantation of exfoliated potential tumor cells? regardless of the solution to this question, it truly is transparent that tumor cells do implant in therapeutic surgical wounds and the major query is whether or not this can be facilitated by way of lap­ aroscopic surgical procedure with CO pneumoperitoneum in comparison to the normal 2 surgical publicity. it's recognized that tumors shed malignant cells into the blood flow, the peritoneal hollow space and in terms of hole organs, intraluminally. both there's reliable facts that surgical and instrumental manipulation of tumors set off exfoliation of achievable tumor cells.

Die tierische Zelle in Zellkultur

Die ersten erfolgreichen Versuche zur Züchtung tierischer Zellen außerhalb des Organismus reichen zurück in den Beginn unseres Jahrhunderts. 1907 gelang HARRI­ SON durch Explantation von Gewebsstücken aus Froschembryonen der Nachweis, daß in der Embryonalentwicklung die Neuriten als Fortsätze der Nervenzelle ohne Be­ teiligung anderer Zellen gebildet werden, und daß damit eine spezifische celluläre Funktion auch außerhalb des Gesamtorganismus zu beobachten ist [310,311].

An inoculum of 5 x 10 5 cells in the flank of A/J mice produces a 12 -15 mm diameter tumor in 14 days. Intraperitoneal tumor (10 4 cells) only produces tumors at wound sites and carcinomatosis does not occur (Iwanaka et al. 1998). However, TBJ-NB has been reported to cause metastatic spread to lung, liver, kidney and spleen in A/J mice (Choi et al. 1989). Intravenous injection of tumor (10 4 cells) does not cause wound site implantation (Iwanaka et al. 1998). Response to pressure and CO 2 are not known.

These latter patients underwent exploratory laparotomy which revealed locally advanced non-resectable tumors. Interestingly, metastases developed at the port-sites but not in the laparotomy wound. 5%) (Cook and Dehn 1996). 3% of all esophageal cancers). In a French study of 109 patients with gastrointestinal malignancy, no port-site recurrences after diagnostic laparoscopy with intra-abdominal ultrasonography were reported (Barrat et al. 1998). A British series reported 49 patients who underwent diagnostic laparoscopy for gastric cancer (McCulloch 1998).
