Abstract
The development of laparoscopic surgery has suggested new technical procedures for the treatment of several pathologies. Herein we report a case of laparoscopic excision of a posterior gastric wall leiomyoma. The technique reproduces that used in conventional surgery but with a transgastric approach, and the advantages of minimally invasive surgery are maintained. This laparoscopic approach may be considered an alternative strategy for surgical treatment of benign tumors of the stomach.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
