The lesion lifting method for laparoscopic local resection. a With the patient in the supine position, under gastroscopic guidance, a gastric puncture is made on the T-bars of a stomach wall lifting device, transabdominally. b The lesion is then lifted with the two T-bars, and multiple firings of the linear stapler aid in en bloc resection of the lesion. The entire procedure is performed under gastroscopic vision to ensure that the lesion is not included in the stapled suture line. c After performing resection and suturing simultaneously using a linear stapler, the specimen is collected and removed in a specimen collection bag
