Abstract
The objective was to improve the treatment results in patients with submucosal tumors of the stomach.
Methods and materials. 70 cases of treatment of patients with submucosal tumors of the stomach who underwent endoscopic and combined interventions were analyzed.
Results. In all the presented cases, the ST was removed, and the intraoperative and early postoperative complications that occurred were eliminated using endoscopic techniques and laparoscopic intervention. Based on the experience gained, criteria for the selection of removal techniques (endoscopic and in combination with surgery) were determined based on the size of the ST, its location in the stomach, as well as the presence of compromised mucosa above the ST. No relapses were noted during follow-up.
