We report two cases of a Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor (GIST) synchronous and metachronous, respectively, with pancreatic adenocarcinoma. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a GIST involved 3 years after a ductal pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Data from the literature and our cases seem to suggest that incidental GIST may occur synchronously and metachronously with other cancers more frequently than expected. Thus, the patients with a diagnosis of pancreatic adenocarcinoma may have undergone a strict follow up for GIST.
我们分别报告了两例胃肠道间质瘤（GIST），其中一例与胰腺腺癌同时发生，另一例为异时发生。据我们所知，这是第一例在胰腺导管腺癌发生3年后出现的GIST报告。文献数据和我们的病例似乎表明，偶然发生的GIST与其他癌症同时或异时发生的频率可能比预期更高。因此，诊断为胰腺腺癌的患者可能需要对GIST进行严格随访。
