摘要
A jejunal gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is a rare malignant mesenchymal neoplasm of the gastrointestinal tract that arises from the interstitial cells of Cajal. Massive and recurrent bleeding due to jejunal GIST is a diagnostic challenge which may lead to delays in treatment. GISTs as the source of bleeding are already rare. This case is further characterized by endoscopic visualization and clipping of a site of bleeding before eventual surgical resection for recurrent bleeding.
