Abstract
SUMMARY
Gastro-intestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are the most common mesenchymal gastrointestinal tumors. The Gastric location represents 60% of cases [1,2]. Complete surgical excision remains the treatment of citationsRaw for the localized forms. This surgery can be made by laparoscopy when the lesion’s size doesn’t exceed 5 cm.
Some principles must e respected: a mono-block complete surgical resection, with healthy margins and without effraction. This technique will be reserved for trained teams and for selected cases according to the size and location. We herein try to explain the surgical laparoscopic excision of gastric stromal tumors explaining .
