Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are common mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. Some somatic factors have been linked to an increased incidence risk. The diagnostic process for GIST poses difficulties since it bears limited resemblance to ovarian masses, given its manifestation through symptoms like abdominal pain, abdominal mass, fever, weight loss, and loss of appetite. Patients with GIST usually exhibit clinical symptoms and signs of an abdominal mass and chronic pelvic pain might look like an ovarian mass, and diagnosed as GIST on histological examination. A 50-year-old woman presented to the gynecology outpatient department with complaints of an abdominal lump accompanied by pain and decreased appetite persisting for five months, leading to a preliminary diagnosis of an ovarian mass. Further evaluation by histopathological examination was confirmed to be GIST on the final diagnosis.
胃肠道间质瘤（GIST）是常见的胃肠道间叶组织肿瘤。一些体细胞因素与发病风险增加有关。GIST的诊断过程存在困难，因为它与卵巢肿块的相似性有限，其表现为腹痛、腹部肿块、发热、体重减轻和食欲不振等症状。GIST患者通常表现出腹部肿块的临床症状和体征，慢性盆腔疼痛可能类似卵巢肿块，并在组织学检查时被诊断为GIST。一名50岁女性因腹部肿块伴疼痛和食欲减退持续5个月就诊于妇科门诊，初步诊断为卵巢肿块。经组织病理学检查进一步评估，最终诊断为GIST。
