摘要

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are rare tumors of the GI tract.Surgical resection remains the mainstay of non-metastatic disease.However,the ability to provide an adequate oncologic resection using laparoscopic surgery is still an area of debate.This is a thorough review of the current literature,looking particularly at the use of laparoscopic surgery for larger GISTs and the long-term oncologic outcomes compared to the results of open surgery.Laparoscopic resections provide an adequate oncologic result for GISTs of all sizes,including those greater than 5 cm in size.
