Abstract: Objective To discuss the indication, technique, effect, and safety of endoscopic treatment of SMT in gastrointestinal tract. Methods Endoscopic therapy was performed in 94 patients with gastrointestinal diagnosed by endoscopy. 22 cases underwent EMR; 61 cases were treated with ESD; MBM was exercised on 7 cases; and nylon endoloop ligature were carried out on 4 cases. Results Complete resection was achieved on 86 cases, and 1 case was excised partially. 1 patient with SMT was transferred to open surgery. Lumps of 4 SMT cases treated by nylon endoloop ligature were found disappeared at subsequent visit after a month. All patients were followed up for one year, and no recurrence was found. Conclusions Gastrointestinal SMT can be completely resected by EMR, ESD and MBM. Nylon endoloop ligature can be used for the treatment of SMT in position difficult to deal with. Endoscopic therapy is relatively safe, effective, and minimal invasion for SMT.
