Abstract
The authors report an exceptional case of subcutaneous metastatic diss emination, located at the puncture points of a coelioscopic lymphadene ctomy for a vesical urothelial carcinoma. Few cases of parietal metast asis have been described after coelioscopic check-up for gynaecologica l and digestive tumours. The onset of this new type of serious complic ation suggests a need to reassess the benefits of this technique in tu mours with lymphatic invasion.
