In January 2020, a patient with a gastrointestinal stromal tumor of the antrum located in close proximity to the pylorus underwent a hybrid laparo-endoscopic organ-sparing gastric resection. There were no intraoperative and postoperative complications. Control endoscopic and X-ray examination of the stomach confirmed normal motor and evacuation function of the stomach. To date, follow-up period is more than 1.5 years. The patient has no complaints. This case demonstrates clear advantages of hybrid access in certain clinical situations, such as localization in anatomically difficult areas and near functional sphincters. Surgical approach ensured pylorus-sparing resection with favorable postoperative result.
