Objective:To investigate the methodology and outcomes of Da Vinci robotic-assisted resection of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) combined with endoscopic transoral specimen retrieval (GC-NOSES type IX), establishing a benchmark for minimally invasive treatment of GISTs.Methods:This manuscript details a case involving a GIST situated on the posterior wall of the distal gastric body, adjacent to the lesser curvature, with a size of approximately 2.7 cm and exhibiting an intraluminal growth pattern. The tumor was effectively excised through robot-assisted GIST resection, complemented by endoscopic transoral specimen extraction
