Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are neoplasms of mesenchymal origin which may or may not be malignant. Malignant GIST rarely metastasize to distal organs. A case of cutaneous metastasis from GIST has been presented. This case is particularly interesting because not only did the patient have multiple metastases from GIST, but eventually developed cutaneous metastasis. This phenomenon has not been reported in the literature. The most current literature on gastrointestinal stromal tumors has been reviewed.
胃肠道间质瘤（GIST）是间叶组织来源的肿瘤，可能为恶性，也可能为良性。恶性GIST很少转移至远处器官。本文报告了1例GIST皮肤转移的病例。该病例特别有趣，因为患者不仅有多处GIST转移灶，最终还发生了皮肤转移。这种现象在文献中尚未见报道。本文对胃肠道间质瘤的最新文献进行了综述。
