Abstract
We report two cases of benign gastric tumours which were resected lapa roscopically. The lesions were diagnosed pre-operatively by upper endo scopy and endoscopic ultrasound. Excisions were complete with satisfac tory resection margins. The post-operative courses were uncomplicated : the length of hospital stay for both patients was 6 days. This techn ique would appear to be a promising alternative to laparotomy for sele cted cases.
