Description

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are rare soft tissue sarcomas that grow from specialized cells in the GI tract wall called interstitial cells of Cajal. Most GISTs occur in the stomach or small intestine and can range from small, benign tumors to large, malignant ones that can spread. Symptoms include abdominal pain, blood in the stool or vomit, and fatigue, though smaller GISTs may be asymptomatic. Treatment for GISTs typically involves surgery and targeted therapies, with factors like tumor size and genetic mutations influencing prognosis and treatment choices.
