Core Tip	Laparoscopic surgery has brought about a paradigm shift in the approach to various surgical diseases. Port site infection, although infrequent, is a complication which can undermine the benefits of the surgery. The complication is not life threatening, but definitely adds a lot to the morbidity, affects the postoperative quality of life, and spoils the aesthesis of the surgery. Leaving aside the bacterial causes, the rapidly emerging multidrug resistant atypical mycobac?teria are a constant threat. By doing a thorough review of this topic, this paper aims to present the relevant literature regarding the diagnosis, currently available treatment options and commandments to prevent the occurrence of this somewhat preventable complication.
