- W4220782550 abstract "Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are rare tumors with increasing incidence. GIST is the most common mesenchymal tumor of the gastrointestinal tract involving the elderly population with a slow progression. It originates from the interstitial cells of Cajal. GISTs that develop outside the gastrointestinal tract and have no connections with the intestinal walls or serosal surfaces of the gastrointestinal tubular organs are referred to as extraintestinal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (EGISTs). They have similar morphological and immunohistological characteristics as GISTs. Here, we describe a unique case of an extremely aggressive mesenteric GIST in a 44-year-old African American male. The patient presented to the hospital with complaints of generalized abdominal pain associated with 50-pound weight loss, decreased appetite, and constipation. He underwent computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen and pelvis which showed a large mass along the central mesentery measuring about 15 × 11 cm with adjacent metastatic nodal disease. He underwent a CT-guided biopsy of his abdominal mass with histopathology findings positive for c-kit (CD117) and discovered on GIST-1 (DOG-1) consistent with GIST. Based on TNM staging, his tumor was graded T4 with N1 given nodal involvement placing him as a stage IV. He was referred to an oncologist and was started on neoadjuvant therapy with imatinib. Mesenteric EGISTs, while rare, are known to have a worse prognosis compared to other EGISTs; hence, prompt action must be taken in aggressively treating these tumors. Factors such as mitotic index and tumor size affect the prognosis of mesenteric GISTs." @default.
