Abstract:
Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is one of the most common tumors originating from gastrointestinal mesenchymal tissues, accounting for about 0.2% of all gastrointestinal tumors. It can occur anywhere in the gastrointestinal tract. Because gastrointestinal stromal tumors have the biological characteristics of non-directional differentiation and potential malignancy, it is very important to resect them completely in time.Traditional surgical excision has a good prognosis in the past, but it has some shortcomings, such as large trauma, slow postoperative recovery and more complications. In recent years, with the continuous development of digestive endoscopy technology, many new endoscopic techniques have emerged for the treatment of gastric stromal tumors, such as endoscopic mucosal dissection (ESD), endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFTR), endoscopy and laparoscopic combined surgery, but the safety and effectiveness of endoscopic surgery for gastric stromal tumors are still controversial in the industry.
