Differential diagnosis of gastric submucosal masses and external pressure lesions.

Abstract

Lesions of the left triangular ligament of the liver are rare, and there are even fewer cases of vascular tumors misdiagnosed as gastrointestinal stromal tumors. We comment on the two cases reported in the article. The article did not include pictures of laparoscopic surgery, making it unconvincing. For gastric submucosal lesions, enhanced computed tomography venous phase imaging may be beneficial for differential diagnosis. Although endoscopic ultrasound is an effective tool for diagnosing submucosal lesions of the stomach, due to various factors, it cannot achieve an accurate diagnosis. During endoscopic examination, a more accurate diagnosis can be made depending on the personal experience of the operators.
