The management of localised and advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) in terms of histological diagnosis, surgery, imaging, medical treatment and molecular biology has rapidly changed since introduction of imatinib mesylate for molecularly targeted therapy in 2000. In this minireview, we briefly summarise and discuss the current data relevant to the increasing role of molecular characterisation of GISTs in the diagnosis, risk assessment and effective targeted therapy.
自2000年引入甲磺酸伊马替尼进行分子靶向治疗以来,局部和晚期胃肠道间质瘤(GISTs)在组织学诊断、手术、影像学、药物治疗和分子生物学方面的管理发生了迅速变化。在这篇小型综述中,我们简要总结并讨论了与GISTs分子特征在诊断、风险评估和有效靶向治疗中日益重要的作用相关的当前数据。
