摘要：
BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Metastatic epidural spinal cord compression from gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) is a rarely reported phenomenon. PURPOSE: To describe the surgical management of metastatic GIST to two noncontiguous regions of the spinal column. STUDY DESIGN: Case report. METHODS: Review of the medical chart, radiographic studies, and relevant literature. RESULTS: The patient underwent direct surgical decompression and stabilization of the cervico-thoracic junction and the lumbar region during treatment of two distinct sites of metastatic pathology. CONCLUSIONS: Treatment of epidural compression from metastatic GIST with direct decompression and stabilization is safe and feasible. (C) 2012 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
