Recent advancements in endoscopic techniques have resulted in greater adoption of minimally invasive methods for diagnosing and treating gastric subepithelial lesions (SELs), significantly reducing the reliance on traditional surgery. Numerous studies have demonstrated that the endoscopic removal of gastric SELs is safe and effective, especially for tumors with low malignant potential. Ongoing improvements in endoscopic tools and procedural innovations continue to enhance therapeutic outcomes and reduce complication rates. This review explores the current endoscopic treatments for gastric submucosal tumors, emphasizing recent technological advancements.
