Selection Of

Recently, results from clinical studies of endoscopic resection of gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) in the stomach are being reported. This procedure has several advantages, such as the provision of a definite diagnosis and therapeutic plan, avoidance of frequent follow-up examination, and reduction of patients’ anxiety. However, several concerns also exist such as a limited number of studies, low R0 resection rate, and relatively shorter follow-up period compared with surgical resection. Nevertheless, it is encouraging that most of the post-procedural complications have been treated with conservative management and that some of the patients did not show recurrence of the tumor during long-term follow-up. The selection of suitable cases and the experience of the endoscopists are the most important factors for successful endoscopic resection of gastric GIST. Development of novel procedures as well as collaboration with laparoscopic surgeons are currently in progress.

Multidisciplinary Consultation

Rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are extremely rare, accounting for approximately 0.1% of all rectal tumors. Diagnosis is based on histological and immunohistochemical confirmation. We report the case of a 38-year-old patient with a rectal GIST revealed by chronic rectal bleeding associated with rectal tenesmus, abdominal pain with painful contractions and frequent evacuations evolving in a context of altered general state. Rectoscopy was used to visualize the tumor mass and to take biopsies; their histological and immunohistochemical study revealed a rectal location of a gastrointestinal stromal tumor. The extension assessment was negative. After discussion of the case in a multidisciplinary consultation meeting, management consisted of initially putting the patient on Imatinib given the large tumor size, the degree of local invasion and the location of the mass (lower rectum), with regular follow-up in order to schedule a less invasive surgical resection later. Despite the rarity of rectal GIST, early diagnosis is necessary to avoid progression to locoregional invasion complicating some surgical resections given the anatomical constraints of the pelvic region. Hence the interest of neoadjuvant therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitors allowing in some cases a decrease in tumor volume, a regression of the degree of local invasion and a decrease in the morbidity of the surgery in order to improve the patient's quality of life.

Metastatic tumors to the liver resulting in fulminant hepatic failure are a rare occurrence and have not been previously described in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). A 70 year-old man was referred to hospital with postprandial discomfort. On examination a 19.5 cm large epithelioid GIST of the stomach was diagnosed. The mass exhibited unfavorable prognostic features: mitotic index 18/50 high-power fields, large primary tumor size and male sex. Complete tumor resection with negative margins was achieved and metastases were not detected. The patient presented six months later with jaundice, asterixis and elevated liver enzymes. Computerized tomography showed multiple liver hypodense lesions representing metastases. Treatment with imatinib mesylate was of no avail and the patient died 3 days later as the result of hepatic failure. Massive liver metastases can, even though rarely, be responsible for fulminant hepatic failure. Clinical and radiological follow-up are crucial in patients with GIST even after surgical resection.

Extra Adrenal Paraganglioma

The nonfamilial Carney triad includes paraganglioma, gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), and pulmonary chondroma. Some paraganglioma-GIST diads are familial and inherited in an apparent autosomal dominant manner. The familial paraganglioma-GIST syndrome differs from the Carney triad by the absence of female predilection and predominance of paragangliomas. We report the cases of a 12-year-old boy with a paraganglioma of the organ of Zuckerkandl, and his 13-year-old monozygotic twin with a gastric GIST. These two patients, to our knowledge, are the first to be reported as likely having the familial paraganglioma-GIST syndrome following its description by Carney and Stratakis (Am J Med Genet 2002;108:132–139) in 12 patients from five families. A lifetime follow-up and a periodic search for both tumors are indicated in these patients and their families.
