[Laparoscopic wedge resection of stromal gastric tumor guided by laparoscopic ultrasonographic scanning].
A case of stromal gastric tumor in a 64-year-old man treated by laparoscopic wedge resection guided by laparoscopic ultrasonography is described. The procedure seems very suitable because it combines the advantages of minimal surgery with the application of ultrasonography, which compensates for the lack of tactile sensitivity in laparoscopic surgery.
