Background and Aims. Endoscopic removal of GISTs (gastrointestinal stromal tumors) is recently recognized, but less is known about its efficacy and safety. This study is aimed at assessing the feasibility, clinical efficacy, and safety of the endoscopic removal of gastric GISTs. Patients and Methods. Endoscopic removal (ER) of GISTs was performed in 134 patients at our hospital between January 2015 and January 2019. The clinical features, surgical outcomes, complications, pathological diagnosis, and risk classification were evaluated retrospectively. Results. ER was successful in 131 cases (98%), including 58 by ESD (endoscopic submucosal dissection), 43 by ESE (endoscopic submucosal excavation), 25 by EFTR (endoscopic full-thickness resection), and 5 by STER (submucosal tunneling endoscopic resection). In addition, GISTs of two cases were resected using LECS (laparoscopic and luminal endoscopic cooperative surgery) for the extraluminal and intraluminal growth pattern. The average tumor size was 1.89±1.25 cm (range: 0.5-6.0 cm). Of these patients, 26 cases had a large tumor size (range: 2.0-6.0 cm), and endoscopic removal was successful in all of them. During the procedure, endoclips were used to close the perforation in all cases, without conversion to open surgery. The average length of hospital stay was 5.50±2.15 days (range: 3-10 days). In the risk classification, 106 (79.7%) were of a very low risk, 25 (18.8%) of a low risk, and 2 (1.5%) of a moderate risk. The moderate-risk cases were treated with imatinib mesylate after ER. No recurrence or metastasis was observed during the follow-up period of 23±8 months (range: 3-48 months). Conclusions. The endoscopic treatment is feasible, effective, and safe for gastric GISTs, and individualized choice of approaches is recommended for GISTs.

91 Background: Despite the recent introduction of imatinib and laparoendoscopic techniques to the management of gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), outcomes remain uncertain in the setting of multivisceral involvement. Methods: We conducted a retrospective review of 69 consecutive patients who underwent resection of gastric GISTs from October 2002 through August 2011. Median follow-up was 19 months (interquartile range [IQR] 4-37). Results: Patients were 51% female, with a mean age of 65 ± 13 years and BMI of 30 ± 8 kg/m2. Patients undergoing multivisceral resection (n=13) had a longer interval from diagnosis to surgery (7.4 [IQR 1.9 – 15.0] vs. 1.3 [IQR 0.7-3.5] months, p<0.01), greater use of neoadjuvant imatinib (62% vs. 4%, p<0.001), and greater preoperative tumor size (12 ± 8 vs. 4 ± 3 cm, p<0.001) in comparison to gastric-only resections (n=56). Patients were less likely to be managed laparoscopically (8% vs. 71%, p<0.001), had a longer operative time (286 ± 92 vs. 152 ± 65 min, p<0.001), and were less likely to be R0 (69% vs. 98%, p<0.001). While patients undergoing multivisceral resection were more likely to have a pathological complete response to therapy (23% vs. 0, p<0.01), they were also more likely to have metastatic disease present (31% vs. 0, p<0.01). Hospital length of stay was greater (median 8 [IQR 7-9] vs. 3 [IQR 2-6] days, p<0.001). There were no significant differences in grade or mitotic index between groups, or in the use of adjuvant imatinib (54% vs. 23%). Overall survival was less in patients undergoing multivisceral resection (63% vs. 86% at 3 years, p<0.05), as was disease-free survival (52% vs. 71% at 3 years, p<0.05). Median disease-free survival was 50 and 66 months, respectively (p<0.01). Controlling for tumor size, grade, resection status, and the use of neoadjuvant imatinib, multivisceral resection was an independent predictor of disease-free survival (p<0.05). Conclusions: Multivisceral involvement is associated with tumors of greater size, and despite an increased use of neoadjuvant imatinib, it is associated with poor outcome for patients with gastric GISTs.

Background. Gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) that are predominantly endophytic or in anatomically complex locations pose a challenge for laparoscopic wedge resection; however, endoscopic resection can be associated with a positive deep margin given the fourth-layer origin of the tumors.Methods. Patients at two tertiary care academic medical centers with gastric GISTs in difficult anatomic locations or with a predominant endophytic component were considered for enrollment. Preoperative esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD), endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) with or without fine needle aspiration (FNA), and cross-sectional imaging were performed. Eligible patients were offered and consented for hybrid and standard management.Results. Over ten months, four patients in two institutions with anatomically complex or endophytic GISTs underwent successful, uncomplicated push-pull hybrid procedures. GIST was confirmed in all resection specimens.Conclusion. In a highly selected population, the hybrid push-pull approach was safe and effective in the removal of complex gastric GISTs. Endoscopic resection alone was associated with a positive deep margin, which the push-pull technique manages with a laparoscopic, full thickness, R0 resection. This novel, minimally invasive, hybrid laparoscopic and endoscopic push-pull technique is a safe and feasible alternative in the management of select GISTs that are not amenable to standard laparoscopic resection.

Abstract Background Surgical management of gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) has evolved towards minimal invasiveness. Laparoscopic wedge resection and laparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative surgery had been considered as standard surgical treatments for gastric GISTs > 2 cm. However, stomach deformation and the full-thickness gastric defect caused by these procedures may increase the risk of morbidity. To address these problems, we developed a novel technique, third space robotic and endoscopic cooperative surgery (TS-RECS), which could dissect the tumor entirely while preserving the intact mucosal layer. Here we performed a prospective evaluation of the feasibility and safety of TS-RECS. Methods Patients with gastric GISTs were recruited between April 2018 and April 2019. During the operation, the gastric GIST was located by endoscopic view firstly and the submucosal injection was performed. The tumor was then dissected through robotic surgery. Clinicopathological characteristics, operative data, adverse events, and follow-ups were prospectively collected and analyzed. Results A total of 20 patients with gastric GISTs received TS-RECS. The mean tumor size was 33.0 ± 7.3 mm. R0 resection was achieved in all patients with a median operation time of 115 min and a median blood loss of 20 ml. The integrity of mucosal layer was maintained in 95% (19/20) of the patients. All patients started oral diet on postoperative day 1 or 2, staying in the hospital for a median of 6 days after surgery. There were no major adverse events. Local or distant recurrences were not observed during a median follow-up period of 10 months. Conclusions Our study suggests that TS-RECS appears to be a feasible and safe technique which could be an alternative method for resecting gastric GISTs > 2 cm.
