Core Tip	Endoscopic resection has emerged as a promising, minimally invasive treatment for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). Techniques like endoscopic submucosal dissection, submucosal tunneling endoscopic resection, and endoscopic full-thickness resection have shown favorable outcomes, including high rates of complete tumor removal, reduced recovery times, and preservation of gastric function. This review explores the advancements in these techniques, highlighting their safety, efficacy, and the growing role of endoscopy in GIST management. Key factors for selecting the appropriate resection method depend on tumor size, location, and patient-specific factors.
