title: Combined laparoscopic treatment of gastric leiomyoma and gallstones.
abstract: Laparoscopic treatment of benign gastric disease is rapidly expanding. Gastric leiomyoma, a benign gastric neoplasm, can now be resected laparoscopically. A wide variety of laparoscopic procedures is presented in case reports during the last few years. The authors report a successful laparoscopic enucleation of a gastric leiomyoma combined with laparoscopic cholecystectomy for cholelithiasis.
