Port Site Metastasis of Breast Cancer after Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery for Pulmonary Metastasis of Breast Cancer: A Case Report

We reported a case of port site metastasis in a 57-year-old patient who underwent video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) resection of pulmonary metastasis from breast cancer. Port site metastasis after VATS is very rare in patients with breast cancer. However, when suspicious lesions are detected ne...
