Abstract
|
|
|
|
Tube tract implantation metastasis of non-small cell lung cancer is an extremely rare complication of surgical pericardiotomy. We report a case of tube tract seeding along the previous chest tube tract in the subxiphoid region. The subxiphoid tube tract seeding was created during pericardial window operation of a 48-year-old male patient with lung cancer for the drainage of malignant pericardial effusion.
