[A Case of Small Intestinal Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor(GIST)with Synchronous Colonic Cancer and Gastric Cancer at a Different Time].
Gan to Kagaku Ryoho. Cancer & Chemotherapy 2016 November
The patient was a 70-year-old woman with a gastrointestinalstromaltumor (GIST)of the small intestine and synchronous colonic cancer, who underwent laparoscopic right colectomy and resection of the small intestine. We started imatinib therapy because GIST belongs to a high-risk group, according to the modified Fletcher classification. Gastric cancer was diagnosed 2 years after the start of imatinib therapy. Only 4 of the 12 GIST cases seen at our institution over the last 5 years were complicated by another cancer. This is the first case of GIST in which 2 other cancers occurred at both the same and different times. We suggest that imatinib might be a factor in the development of gastric cancer.
