Abstract

Laparoscopic wedge resection of cancer has become the standard approach for surgical management of benign and malignant gastric tumors. This chapter describes preoperative considerations for determining patient eligibility and surgical approaches to ensure successful execution of minimally invasive gastric wedge resection. Various techniques are described depending on tumor location, and possible complications are discussed.
