UNASSIGNED: Laparoscopic partial gastrectomy is the standard surgical treatment for @entity1820 ( @entity674 ). However, to reduce @entity356 margins should be secured so as to minimize the size of the resection as much as possible. This is the report on the 3 laparoscopic resection techniques for @entity1820 depending upon the growth pattern and location of the @entity5 , and their results. We performed laparoscopic partial gastrectomy for 41 gastric GISTs between 2004 and 2012. Simple resection was used on exophytic or small GISTs. Seromuscular resection was used on exoendophytic (intramural) and relatively small @entity5 . Transgastric resection was used in cases of large @entity5 . We performed simple resection on 24 lesions (58.5%), seromuscular resection on 14 lesions (34.1%), and transgastric resection on 3 lesions (7.3%). There were no intraoperative complications. @entity260 included 1 case (2.5%) of @entity548 from the staple line.
