title: [Diagnosis and immediate results of treatment of patients with non-epithelial tumors of upper gastrointestinal tract].
abstract: We presented an experience of treatment of 225 patients with non-epithelial tumors of upper gastrointestinal tract. Complicated disease's course was observed in 24% of cases. Tactical approaches are discussed depending on localization, dimensions and nature of tumor growth. Also indications for minimally invasive operations are defined. It was operated 102 (45.3%) of above-mentioned patients. Conventional surgical interventions were performed in 49 (48.0%) cases, laparoscopic operations - in 11 (10.8%) observations, endoscopic techniques using flexible endoscope - in 42 (41.2%) patients. One hundred and twenty-three (54.7%) patients were under dynamic observation. Technical features of the performed operations are described in the article. Complications were diagnosed in 8 patients including intraoperative in 3 cases and postoperative in 5 cases. Postoperative mortality was 2.0% (2 of 102 died). Overall mortality was 1.3% (3 of 225 patients died). Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (38) and leiomyoma (29) were the most frequent findings among removed tumors.
