The aggressive nature of pancreatic cancer makes surgical control of disease an arduous challenge. Tumor seeding during resection is a feared complication during operations performed for this disease. Recurrence within the peritoneal cavity commonly occurs after resection for curative intent. Cutaneous metastasis, however, is a rare event. The majority of skin metastasis reported in the literature occurred after palliative procedures, in which the tumor burden remains. In this report, we describe an unusual case of cutaneous recurrence at the site of a surgical drain after resection for curative intent and discuss the impact of surgery on tumor-growth characteristics.
胰腺癌的侵袭性使得通过手术控制病情成为一项艰巨的挑战。在针对这种疾病进行的手术中，切除过程中的肿瘤种植是一种令人担忧的并发症。为根治性目的进行切除术后，腹腔内复发很常见。然而，皮肤转移是罕见事件。文献中报道的大多数皮肤转移发生在姑息性手术后，此时肿瘤负荷仍然存在。在本报告中，我们描述了一例为根治性目的切除术后手术引流部位出现皮肤复发的罕见病例，并讨论了手术对肿瘤生长特征的影响。
