Gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST) represents a rare tumour entity, which has been more intensively investigated during the last decade. The rectum as the primary site of GIST is even uncommon. The space constraints in the pelvis renders optimal oncological surgery demanding and proximity of these lesions to the anal sphincter enhances the potential morbidity of any radical surgery. We herein report on a young patient with a >5 cm rectal GIST localised at 1 cm from the anorectal junction.
胃肠道间质瘤（GIST）是一种罕见的肿瘤实体，在过去十年中受到了更深入的研究。直肠作为GIST的原发部位甚至更为罕见。骨盆中的空间限制使得最佳的肿瘤手术具有挑战性，并且这些病变靠近肛门括约肌增加了任何根治性手术的潜在发病率。我们在此报告一名年轻患者，其直肠GIST大于5厘米，位于距肛门直肠交界处1厘米处。
