Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is defined as a c-kit-positive gastrointestinal, mesenteric, or omental mesenchymal tumor that very rarely metastasizes to the brain. Metastasis to the cerebellum is particularly rare. An 80-year-old man presented with nausea and vomiting with disturbance of
A fifty-six year-old woman visited our institute, suffering from lower abdominal pain. A tumor was palpable in the pelvic cavity, having the diameter of 9.7 cm, as measured by transvaginal ultrasonography (US). Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a high
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of imatinib mesylate in the treatment of patients as preoperative supplement, or used alone for unresectable and(or) metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST).
METHODS
A total of 30 cases with advanced GIST were proved pathologically. Among them,
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of imatinib mesylate in the treatment of patients as preoperative supplement, or used alone for unresectable and/or metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST).
METHODS
A total of 51 cases with advanced GIST were proved pathologically. Among them,
Imatinib mesylate and perifosine are two relatively new drugs that have improved outcomes for patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors in recent years. The ocular side effects of these two drugs are discussed in this chapter. The most common ocular side effect associated with imatinib mesylate
The authors report a case of a male patient in his forties with progressive abdominal pain associated with weight loss, dyspnea, and edema of the inferior limbs, culminating in a surgical acute abdomen. A segmental enterectomy containing a lesion of about 10 cm in diameter was performed. It was
We report a patient who long had a complete response by chemotherapy with imatinib mesilate(IM)for locally recurrent gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST)of the stomach. On July 2000, a 58-year-old woman was pointed out to have anemia in the course of surveillance for malignant melanoma of skin.
OBJECTIVE
This prospective, multicenter, phase 2 study evaluated the efficacy and safety of imatinib mesylate and assessed KIT and PDGFRA gene mutation status in Korean patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs).
METHODS
Forty-seven patients with pathologically proven KIT-positive
OBJECTIVE
Imatinib mesylate (IM) is effective in metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) patients; however, disease progression eventually occurs due to IM resistance or intolerance. Treatment options include IM escalation or a direct shift to sunitinib, but comparison of these strategies
OBJECTIVE
To retrospectively evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of interventional digital subtraction angiography (DSA) for bleeding small bowel gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs).
METHODS
Between January 2006 and December 2013, small bowel tumors in 25 consecutive patients undergoing emergency
BACKGROUND
About 80% of patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) experience tumor recurrence or metastasis after a prior radical resection, and the most common metastatic site is the liver. Imatinib mesylate has been proven to be effective in advanced GIST. The current pilot study was
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis factors of primary resectable high-risk gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST).
METHODS
The clinicopathological and follow-up data of 45 patients with primary resectable high-risk gastrointestinal stromal tumors between January 2002
OBJECTIVE
To report the case of a patient affected by gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) who developed cutaneous adverse drug reactions during treatment with imatinib and lansoprazole.
METHODS
After 2 months of treatment with imatinib 400 mg/day, a 60-year-old white female affected by GIST
We report a patient who had a complete response by treatment with 200 mg of imatinib mesylate daily for peritoneal recurrences of gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST)of the stomach. On March 2007, a 68-year-old woman underwent distal gastrectomy for GIST of the stomach. On May 2007, peritoneal
As the first-line treatment of Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), the pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) of Imatinib (IM) were characterized by marked interindividual variability. Pharmacogenetics of IM involved metabolic enzymes and transporters have been extensively
