Triangular pulley traction facilitates endoscopic full-thickness resection of exogenous gastric tumor in the fornix of the stomach.

A 65-year-old woman was diagnosed with an exogenous submucosal tumor located in the fornix of the stomach, on the basis of the endoscopic ultrasound and enhanced CT findings. She refused surgery and referred for EFTR. It is difficult to perform EFTR at the gastric fornix and suture the large surgical defect. Therefore, we created technique of triangular pulley traction combined with pre-closure.
