Core Tip

Core tip: Local resection, wedge resection and partial gastrectomy have been successfully applied to the treatment of gastrointestinal stromal tumors. However, the application of laparoscopic segmental gastroscopy in the treatment of gastrointestinal stromal tumors has not been reported. In this study, we analyzed a series of cases from 2014 to 2018 in our single center of applied laparoscopic segmental gastrectomy for gastrointestinal stromal tumors. We describe the preoperative and intraoperative conditions of all patients as well as the postoperative complications.
