Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical value of laparoscopic resection of gastric stromal tumors.Methods Thirty-two cases received this new type of operation.The tumors ranged in size from 1.5 to 5.5cm with a mean diameter of 2.6 cm.The operative methods included the full laparoscopic resection of(gastric) tumor and the hand-assisted laparoscopic resection of gastric tumor.Results All cases were(successfully) resected and no complications were observed.The mean operative time was 75min.The mean(intraoperative) blood loss was 50ml.Postoperative pain was slight.Postoperative flatus and feces were passed at a mean of 34 hours,and average postoperational hospital stay was 7.5days.Postoperative pathologic(examination) confirmed that 25 cases were benign GIST and 7 cases were of low-grade malignancy.No(recurrences) were observed at follow up of 8 to 30 months.Conclusions Laparoscopic resection of gastric(stromal) tumor is a technically simple,safe and effective procedure that could be widely used.
