INTRODUCTION: It is difficult to confirm the location of an @entity674 ( @entity674 ) and to laparoscopically determine the appropriate resection line. We report a new technique for the resection of GISTs using the laparoscopic seromuscular dissection (LSD) technique, which can be preformed regardless of the @entity5 location. METHODS: Since 2009, 5 @entity1 have undergone LSD technique for the resection of an intraluminal @entity674 . The @entity5 location was confirmed endoscopically, and the exact resection line was marked laparoscopically. After 10% @entity653 was injected into the submucosal layer, LSD was performed circumferentially. The @entity5 was exteriorized into the abdominal cavity and dissected using a linear stapling device. RESULTS: The average operation time for this procedure was 134.4    18.6 min, and the mean estimated @entity190 was 10    8.9 ml. None of the 5 cases required open surgery. There was no @entity5 rupture or disruption or any other perioperative complications using this technique. CONCLUSION: We conclude that the LSD technique may be a safe and minimally invasive method for the resection of intraluminal GISTs, regardless of the @entity5 location.
