摘要
Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are considered the most common mesenchymal neoplasms of the alimentary tract, yet they account for only 0.2% of all gastrointestinal neoplasms. We are presenting a case of a 68-year-old gentleman who was diagnosed with a 250 mm jejunal GIST only when he presented with abdominal pain and fullness in the upper abdomen. We believe that detailed medical history, followed by prompt investigations, will help in early diagnosis of small GISTs with less malignant potential, which in turn will lead to better outcomes.
