Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are rare tumors of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Intermittent GI bleeding is the most common manifestation. Massive GI bleeding leading to syncopal episodes and hemorrhagic shock is a rare presentation of these tumors. Herein, we describe a case of a jejunal GIST presenting as massive bleeding.
