Total laparoscopic segmental gastrectomy for gastrointestinal stromal tumors: A case report

Figure 1 Process of tumor resection. A: Size of the tumor is measured during surgery and location of the tumor is determined; B and C: Using mechanical anastomotic devices for laparoscopic segmental gastrectomy; D: Specimen is retrieved using a special pouch.

Figure 2 Procedure of end-to-end anastomosis. A: Proximal residual stomach and distal end after segmental resection of the stomach; B: Using mechanical anastomotic devices for proximal residual stomach and distal end end-to-end anastomosis between the residual stomach; C: Residual common openings after end-to-end anastomosis between the residual stomach; D: Residual common opening was closed by mechanical anastomotic devices.

Figure 3 Gastric caps are well closed after segmental gastrectomy.
