• Laparoscopic surgery of the stomach is not well accepted in patients with malignant disease. This paper shows the first experiences with this procedure at the Clinical Hospital and Medical School, Split, in two patients with early stage gastric carcinoma. The first patient was a 57 year old man who had had some gastric symptoms for a while. The other patient was a 73 year old man who had ulcer disease 52 years ago. Laparoscopic subtotal gastrectomy with omentectomy and Roux-en-Y reconstruction of the alimentary tract was performed on both patients. Pathohystological analysis of the resected part of the stomach showed the early stage gastric adenocarcinoma without metastases to the lymph nodes around the stomach or any pathological changes in the omentum for both of the patients. There were no complications during postoperative period. The first patient was released from the hospital after 8 and other after 9 days. All oncological principles were satisfied with laparoscopic subtotal resection with good and fast postoperative recovery without complications.
