Core Tip	This study mainly analysed the clinical data of endoscopic resection or surgical treatment of large (≥ 3 cm) gastric stromal tumors from January 2012 to December 2017 in our hospital. The endoscopy group had no high-risk stromal tumors, while patients with the same size tumors were considered high risk in the surgical group.The maximum tumor diameter was significantly larger in the surgical group than in the endoscopy group.A total of 22 patients had tumors with volumes of less than 125 cm3 without liquefaction and surface ulcer bleeding, including 1 high-risk.
