Laparoscopic resectional oesophago-gastroplasty: a novel technique for minimally invasive treatment of large high gastric lesser curve GIST involving gastroesophageal junction
Keyword(s):
Abstract A paramount factor in selecting the operative approach for gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST) is tumour location. Tumours located high along the lesser curve of the stomach pose a challenge in laparoscopic resection. A 56-year-old lady presented with per rectal bleeding and loss of weight. Endoscopic and radiological investigations revealed a large gastric GIST located over the lesser curve with proximal margin <1 cm from the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ). We present the steps of a novel technique for laparoscopic resectional oesophago-gastroplasty to resect large high gastric lesser curve GIST involving the GEJ.
