Incidental diagnosis of extra-gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor: case report

Abstract

Abstract

The gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) of the gastrointestinal tract may be asymptomatic and discovered incidentally during an endoscopic or barium study or during a computed tomography scan done for another purpose. More often, patients present with nonspecific symptoms such as early satiety, bloating. Surgical resection is the treatment of choice for potentially resectable tumors. In this case report, we present a case with extra-gastric GIST which incidental diagnosed by during contrast-enhanced multi-detector computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging examination of abdomen.

Keywords: Extra-gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging

Özet

Gastrointestinal traktın gastrointestinal stromal tümörleri (GIST) asemptomatik olabilir ve endoskopik veya baryum çalışmalarında veya başka nedenle yapılan bilgisayarlı tomografi çalışmalarında tesadüfen saptanabilir. Sıklıkla hastalar erken doyma ve şişkinlik gibi nonspesifik belirtiler hissederler. Cerrahi rezeksiyon uygun tümörlerde tercih edilir. Bu olgu sunumunda karın bölgesinin kontrastlı multidetektör bilgisayarlı tomografi ve manyetik rezonans görüntüleme işlemleri sırasında tesadüfen saptanan bir ekstra-gastrik GIST olgusu ele alınmaktadır.

Anahtar sözcükler: Ekstra-gastrik gastrointestinal stromal tümör, bilgisayarlı tomografi, manyetik rezonans görüntüleme
