Rectal Gists

Background and Study Aims: To investigate the clinicopathologic characteristics, surgical and imatinib management and long-term follow-up outcomes of the rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). Patients and Methods: Consecutive patients with rectal GISTs admitted to our center (from January 2013 to June 2018) were chosen. Their history information was viewed, and the follow-up results were obtained by phone or medical records. Results: Forty-nine patients (32 males and 17 females) were identified, with a median age of 59 years, and 36 patients received surgery. Most (46 patients, 93.9%) of the tumor were located within 6 cm from the anal verge, 18 patients (36.7%) had very low or low risk, and 31 patients (63.3%) had intermediate or high risk. Four kinds of surgery approach were applied in our center: trans-abdominal (8 patients, 22.2%), trans-anal/trans-perineal (15 patients, 41.7%), trans-sacral (12 patients, 33.3%) and abdominoperineal (1 patient, 2.8%). The complication is low and the mortality related to surgery is 0%. After a median follow-up of 705 days (ranged from 48 days to 1677 days), 3 patients (8.33%) were found to have a recurrence. Conclusion: Trans-anal/trans-perineal and trans-sacral surgery were more commonly used in our study, and for now, the recurrence rate had no difference, but a longer time for follow-up is needed.

Long Term Follow Up

GISTs (Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors) are the most frequently encountered mesenchymal tumor of the gastrointestinal tract. Gastrointestinal stromal tumors have been recognized as a biologically distinctive tumor type, different from smooth muscle and neural tumors of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). GISTs present 0.1%-3.0% of gastrointestinal malignant tumors. The goals in treating patients with GIST are to maximize the chance of cure, minimize recurrence. A multidisciplinary approach to patients with GISTs is necessary to optimize the timing of medical and surgical therapy as they have unpredictable behavior. Also long term follow up is essential for all patients, independent of their benign or malignant characteristics. This review highlight on clinical, diagnostic imaging, histopatholpgical, immunohistochemical ,new markers and management modalities for Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GISTs) and Extragastrointestinal stromal tumors (E-GISTs).
