Abstract:

The detection rate of gastric submucosal tumor (SMT) and early gastric cancer has been increasing year by year. The type of treatment should be selected to keep gastric function as more as possible because of both SMT and early gastric cancer with good prognosis. Endoscopy and the combination of laparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative surgery can be the choice. Laparoscopic intragastric surgery (LIGS) contains the advantages of both laparoscopy and endoscopy and can be performed by the surgeon only. LIGS has been applied to gastric submucosal tumors and early gastric cancer based on the continuous improvement of the procedure and instruments of LIGS. The application including the advantage and disadvantage of LIGS were reviewed in this paper.
