Laparoscopic endoluminal gastric surgery

Laparoscopic endogastric surgery is a novel surgical approach that introduces the viewing laparoscope and instruments into the gastric lumen. The excellent visualization, improved instrument handling and versatility afforded by this technique enable local resection of mucosal lesions that are beyond the scope of peroral endoscopy. The authors describe this particular approach for the excision of gastric villous adenoma and early gastric cancer.link_to_subscribed_fulltex
