Summary

You are faced with a patient complaining of pelvic fullness. On DRE, you feel a submucosal bulge without palpating a tumour in the lumen. A CT scan confirms a pelvic mass. The biopsy reveals a spindle cell type gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST) positive for CD117.

Join Dr. Carole Richard, Dr. François Dagbert and Dr. Maher Al Khaldi in their conversation about the diagnosis and management of rectal GIST.

Learning objectives

- To explain the origin of rectal GISTs
- To recognize the prognostic factors associated with rectal GISTs
- To understand the management of rectal GISTs in the era of Imatinib
- To list the surgical approaches for rectal GIST resection

If you are a general surgery resident or practicing surgeon who performs robotic assisted cholecystectomies or inguinal hernia repairs, reach out to the PI, Robert Laverty, MD, at [email protected] for more information on how you could be compensated $500 per video submitted of each (up to $1000 per surgeon).
