A 46-year-old male patient presenting with epigastric pain, underwent an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy examination. He was found to have a 1.5cm sized submucosal lesion at high body, posterior wall of the stomach. To get a histologic diagnosis, strip biopsy was performed, but complicated by perforation of the stomach. He was treated immediately by endoscopic purse-string ligation method using detachable snare and hemoclips. He recovered uneventfully and was discharged after 12 days.
