ABSTRACT
Abstract: Gastrointestinal stromal tumor is rare digestive tract mesenchymal tumor, most often in the wall of the stomach. It is a benign neoplasm, but it can become malignant if not treated. We report a case of gastrointestinal stromal tumor that was discovered after abdominal ultrasonography during staging of a patient with primary cutaneous amelanotic melanoma. Mutation in the tyrosine kinase receptor could explain the development of two types of tumors in the same patient.

Criar curativos compressivos que evitem hematomas no pós-operatório de cirurgias no couro cabeludo é um desafio. Tais curativos podem ser especialmente de problemática realização na região do vértex, pela dificuldade de adesão da fita hipoalergênica no local. Os autores apresentam uma boa opção de curativos compressivos para uso após cirurgias no couro cabeludo.
To make compressive dressings that are capable of preventing hematoma during the recovery period, after surgery on the scalp is a challenge. These dressings can be especially problematic to perform in the vertex region, due to the difficult adhesion of the hypoallergenic tape in that site. The authors introduce a good option for compressive dressings for use after surgeries on the scalp.
