Gastrointestinal stromal tumors

Abdominal Imaging, 2006
We reviewed radiologic features of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) and correlated them with clinical and pathologic findings.We investigated a series of 39 c-Kit-positive GISTs. Clinical and radiologic findings and management of these patients were recorded.Twenty women and 19 men (mean age 64 years) had histologically proved GIST.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumor

Surgical Oncology, 2008
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. These form a distinct category of tumors characterized by oncogenic mutations of the KIT receptor tyrosine kinase in a majority of patients. KIT is used not only for diagnosis but also for targeted therapy of GISTs.

Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors

Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 2005
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are identified pathologically by the expression of KIT. The management of GISTs has been altered significantly by the development of imatinib mesylate, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor with activity against KIT and platelet-derived growth factor receptors.

Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors

American Journal of Therapeutics, 2016
The understanding of aberrant molecular pathways that result in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) and the rapid development of molecular therapies that target these pathways represent one of the great milestones in translational oncology.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors and leiomyosarcomas

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2008
AbstractOnly recently has gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) been recognized as the most frequent GI mesenchymal neoplasm. Prior to the use of KIT staining, most GI stromal tumors were identified as leiomyosarcoma (LMS). For primary GIST, surgery remains the principal treatment and adjuvant imatinib may improve outcomes.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumor of the anus

Techniques in Coloproctology, 2003
We report a rare case of gastrointestinal tumor of the anus with an unusual presentation as a perianal lipoma. A 65-year-old man presented with a 2-month history of a painless perianal lump clinically resembling a perianal lipoma. Endoanal ultrasonography revealed a 3 x 3 cm2 mass in the intersphincteric plane. Following initial excision of the lesion,
