Laparoscopic and minilaparotomy Billroth I gastrectomy for gastric ulcer using an abdominal wall-lifting method.
Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy is still technically difficult because of the lack of appropriate techniques, the expensive laparoscopic instruments, and the use of numerous disposable stapling devices. In an attempt to solve these problems, we have designed a method of laparoscopic and minilaparotomy Billroth I gastrectomy using an abdominal wall-lifting method.
