Abstract:
We report two cases of benign gastric tumours which were resected laparoscopically. The lesions were diagnosed pre-operatively by upper endoscopy and endoscopic ultrasound. Excisions were complete with satisfactory resection margins. The post-operative courses were uncomplicated: the length of hospital stay for both patients was 6 days. This technique would appear to be a promising alternative to laparotomy for selected cases.
