ABSTRACT

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal tumors in the gastrointestinal tract, and about 60% of them are found in the stomach. endoscopic resection is a minimally invasive method compared with the conventional surgical approaches (open or laparoscopic), and has been demonstrated to be safe and effective for treating gastric GISTs. Endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFTR) is required for extraluminal GIST type. Preset clip-thread traction assisted can fully expose the surgical cutting line, provide enough surgical space, and improve surgical safety,and reduce operation time. In addition, clipthread traction can prevent the tumor from falling into the abdominal cavity after resection
