Pancreatic Extragastrointestinal Stromal Tumor: A Case Report.
Curēus 2024 Februrary
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are soft tissue sarcomas that originate from the mesenchymal cells of the gastrointestinal tract. Extra-GISTs (EGISTs) are caused by sites outside the gastrointestinal tract. We reported a case of EGIST of the pancreas in a 51-year-old woman. Enhanced CT scan showed a rounded, slightly hypointense focus in the head of the pancreas and the right pars compacta of the descending duodenum. Routine laboratory and endocrine tests were unremarkable. The patient underwent laparoscopic surgery. The diagnosis of EGIST was confirmed through histopathological and immunohistochemical examination. The tumor was found to be CD117+, CD34+, and DOG+ with a high risk of malignancy. No recurrence was observed during the nine-month postoperative follow-up.
