A 55 year-old female patient suffers from a painful epigastric mass for one week. As gastritis management failed, ultrasound reexamines her abdomen.
A 117x67 milimeter mass is detected between liver and right kidney. Its structure is poor with some cystic lesions and central part more rich echogeneicity that is thought to be an intestinal GIST.
Her uterus gets having some fibroma lesions also which have the same echogeneicity.
MSCT later confirmes the intestinal GIST and uterine fibroma.
Surgery removes the intestinal GIST [left specimen] and an uterine fibroma with stalk (right specimen).
The histopathologic and chemohistoimmuno- staining results are intestinal GIST, and uterine leiomyoma.
