RESUMO
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors(GISTs)are the most common mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract and respond poorly to conventional radiochemotherapy.Complete excision is the only possible way to cure GISTs.Although targeted therapy is effective for GISTs,multiple and/or secondary mutations of KIT or PDGFRA gene have lead to increased drug resistance and disease relapse.A variety of tumor infiltrating immune cells and complex immune microenvironments have been found in GISTs.Many immune cells participate in the occurrence and development of GISTs and play key roles in targeted therapy.The feasibility and effectiveness of immunotherapy for GISTs have been well demonstrated in preclinical and clinical studies.

The prevalence of thyroid cancer has shown an upward trend in China in recent years. Advances in thyroid ultrasound and fine needle puncture cytology have improved the accuracy of the preoperative diagnosis of thyroid cancer. Also,the application of endoscopy-assisted techniques and intraoperative nerve monitoring technology and the further understanding of thyroid lymph node metastasis have made the thyroid surgeries safer and less invasive. This article summarizes the recent advances in the surgical therapy of thyroid cancer.
