Title: Retroperitoneal extragastrointestinal stromal tumor: radiologic pathologic correlation. Author: Watal P, Brahmbhatt SG, Thoriya PJ, Bahri NU. Journal: J Clin Imaging Sci; 2014; 4():34. PubMed ID: 25161803. Abstract: Neoplasms with histology and immunohistochemistry similar to gastrointestinal stromal tumors may occur primarily outside the gastrointestinal tract, usually in the omentum and mesentery. These are referred to as extragastrointestinal stromal tumors (EGISTs). Retroperitoneum is a very rare site for such neoplasms. We report a patient with EGIST in the retroperitoneum, elaborating the cross-sectional imaging and histopathologic findings.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
