Abstract:
Gastric leiomyoma is a rare gastric neoplasia. The laparoscopic method may treat various gastric tumors, including benign leiomyoma by wedge resection without opening the gastric cavity. The laparoscopic approach to submucosal tumors of the stomach is technically feasible, is safe, and has good postoperative results. It should be considered a viable alternative to open surgery. Herein, we describe a case of laparoscopic wedge resection of gastric leiomyoma.
