Abstract
Laparoscopic excision of a gastric lipoma is reported here. The diagnosis was done preoperatively be computed tomography, which gave evidence of fat tissue due to its low attenuation. The patient undergoes a complete submucosal excision enjoying the benefit of the laparoscopic approach with rapid postoperative recovery. This procedure offers a good alternative to open laparotomy in the treatment of benign gastric tumours.Entities:
