Primary omental gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are classified as extra-GISTs with a reported incidence of <1% of all GISTs. There are only a few cases in the English literature reporting omental GIST with none reporting acute intra-abdominal haemorrhage as a presenting feature. We report a case of a 67-year-old man who presented with haemorrhage from a primary omental GIST requiring emergency laparotomy.
原发性网膜胃肠道间质瘤(GISTs)被归类为胃肠道外间质瘤,据报道其发病率占所有GISTs的不到1%。英文文献中仅有少数几例关于网膜GIST的报道,且无一例将急性腹腔内出血作为首发特征。我们报告一例67岁男性患者,其因原发性网膜GIST出血而需要进行急诊剖腹手术。
