摘要

GI stromal tumors (GIST) are mesenchymal neoplasms that arise from precursors of connective tissue cells of the GI tract and that appear to be related to the interstitial Cajal's cells of the myenteric plexus. Although the true incidence is unknown, it is estimated that as many as 5000 to 6000 cases occur in the United States annually. GISTs can arise at any location in the GI tract and have in common the expression of the c-kit proto-oncogene protein, a cell-surface transmembrane receptor with tyrosine kinase activity that leads to uncontrolled cell proliferation and resistance to apoptosis. The primary therapy for resectable GISTs remains surgery. Until recently, there has been no effective therapy for unresectable or metastatic GISTs. Treatment of advanced GISTs with imatinib mesylate, also known as STI571 (Gleevec; Novartis Pharmaceuticals, Basel, Switzerland), a selective inhibitor of certain tyrosine kinases (including c-kit), has achieved partial responses, with substantial reductions in tumor bulk in over half of patients. These dramatic decreases' in tumor size make the prospect of using imatinib mesylate in the adjuvant or the neoadjuvant setting intriguing. A case is described in which imatinib mesylate was used before surgery to facilitate the subsequent surgical resection of a locally advanced rectal GIST.
