Abstract:
In recent years, with the development of digestive endoscopy, endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD) and its derived techniques including endoscopic submucosal excavation(ESE), submucosal tunnelling endoscopic resection(STER) and laparoscopic endoscopic combined surgery(LECS), can cure most of the gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST). This article reviews the indication, method and evaluation of endoscopic resection for gastric GIST.
