Abstract

Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal tumours of the gastrointestinal tract. They originate from any part of the tract as well as the omentum, mesentery or retroperitoneum. In this study, we present a case of a GIST arising at an extraordinary site of the tract, the pancreas. An investigation into abdominal distension in a 30 year old man revealed a cystic, septated distal pancreatic lesion 13 cm in diameter. There were no intra-abdominal or distant organ metastases. The patient was operated on with a provisional diagnosis of a cystic pancreas tumour. Distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy were performed. The lesion was diagnosed as a gastrointestinal stromal tumour upon histopathological examination. He was discharged on the sixth day after the operation without any complications and was followed up for 21 months without systemic or local recurrence. Extra- gastrointestinal GISTs are reported rarely. To our knowledge, only one pancreatic GIST has been reported previously in the English literature

Özet

Gastrointestinal stromal tümörler (GİST), sindirim sisteminin en sık görülen mezenkimal doku kaynaklı tümörleridir. Sindirim sistemi kanalının herhangi bir yerinde görülebileceği gibi omentum, mezenter veya retroperitoneal bölge gibi sindirim sistemi kanalı dışında da görülebilir. Otuz yaşında erkek hastanın, karında şişlik yakınması nedeniyle yapılan tetkiklerinde distal pankreasta en geniş yerinde çapı 13 cm olan, kistik ve septalar içeren kitle saptandı. Çevre organ invazyonu ve uzak organ metastazı saptanmadı. Hastaya kistik pankreas tümörü ön tanısıyla distal pankreatektomi ve splenektomi uygulandı. Rezeksiyon materyalinin histopatolojik inceleme sonucu, gastrointes- tinal stromal tümör olarak bildirildi. Ameliyat sonrası 6. gününde sorunsuz olarak taburcu edilen hasta, ameliyat sonrası 21. ayında hastalıksız olarak takip edilmektedir. Nadir de olsa sindirim sistemi kanalı dışında gelişen (eks- tragastrointestinal) GİST vakaları bildirilmiştir. Bildiğimiz kadarıyla bu olgu dışında, İngilizce literatürde bildirilen, sadece bir pankreas kaynaklı GİST olgusu vardır
