Benign tumors of the stomach may be approached and resected laparoscopically; a transgastric, intra-organ approach is safe and efficient; laparoscopic distal gastrectomy is safe and technically feasible; patients have a shorter recovery interval and shorter postoperative hospital stay. Cautious progress in this field is recommended.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
