port of entry
noun ports of entry
- A harbor, airport, or border crossing where goods or immigrants enter a country. For the Japanese, continued Russian control of Ying-k'ou was not simply a legal matter. Since Ying-k'ou was the major port of entry for Japanese goods into Manchuria, the Russian occupation threatened to undermine Japanese commercial interests.
- The location or mechanism by which a foreign entity gains entry into the body or self. As it was becoming apparent in the development of Single port Access that we could begin applying the one port of entry approach to multiple procedures, applying it to cholecystectomies was simply a matter of time.
