Description
Summary:	Laparoscopy and endoscopy cooperative surgery(LECS)is an excellent surgical procedure that utilizes the advantages of both methods. Furthermore, non-exposed endoscopic wall-inversion surgery(NEWS)is a more promising procedure that enables avoidance of tumor exposure of and dissemination to the abdominal cavity. However, NEWS has the potential risk of postoperative ulceration, leading to delayed perforation because of mucosal defect. We invented a modified NEWS, which was a safe procedure, by including the all-layer suture to close the mucosal defect. We present a case of gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST)near the esophagogastric junction, which was treated with modified NEWS.
