Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are rare gastrointestinal (GI) malignancies, but the most prevalent mesenchymal tumours of the GI tract arise from the interstitial cells of Cajal. They account for 1-3% of all GI malignancies, and only 3-5% of all cases of GIST are located at the duodenal. We present a case of a young adult who presented to the ED with symptoms of GI bleeding.
胃肠道间质瘤(GISTs)是罕见的胃肠道恶性肿瘤,但胃肠道最常见的间充质肿瘤起源于 Cajal 间质细胞。它们占所有胃肠道恶性肿瘤的 1%至 3%,而所有 GIST 病例中只有 3%至 5%位于十二指肠。我们报告一例年轻成人因胃肠道出血症状就诊于急诊科的病例。
