Abstract

The patient was a 36-year-old male. A protruding lesion adjacent to the cardia of the stomach was detected by upper gastrointestinal series, and the diagnosis of gastric submucosal tumor was entertained by upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and abdominal computed tomography (CT) (Fig. 1), while endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) findings were not inconsistent with a muscular layer-derived tumor (Fig. 2). Laparoscopic partial resection of the stomach was therefore scheduled. The observation of the abdominal cavity revealed a tumor growing from the edge of the lateral segment of the liver (Fig. 3), for which laparoscopic partial resection of the liver was performed. He developed no complications and was discharged 5 days after surgery.
