AB  - BACKGROUND: Synovial sarcoma (SS) is a rare soft tissue tumor. Among different 
      anatomical locations where it can be found, gastric localization is a very 
      uncommon one. Based on soft tissue sarcoma guidelines, complete tumor excision is 
      considered the main treatment approach. Depending on size and localization of the 
      tumor, both wedge and major gastric resections have been performed in the past 
      for the treatment of this condition. CASE PRESENTATION: We present the case of a 
      43-year-old woman who underwent a laparoscopic intragastric excision of a gastric 
      10-mm SS located nearby the esophagogastric junction. Pathology examination 
      confirmed the presence of a SS. The resected specimen confirmed margin-free 
      excision of a monophasic spindle cell neoplasm invading the submucosa and 
      presenting the rearrangement of SS18 gene at fluorescence in situ hybridization 
      (FISH). No adjuvant treatment was offered, and 18 months after surgery, the 
      patient was alive and disease free. CONCLUSIONS: This represents the first case 
      reported in literature of a laparoscopic intragastric resection for a gastric SS. 
      This approach allowed to obtain a full thickness radical tumor resection with the 
      advantages of minimally invasive and organ preserving surgery.
