RESUMO
Os autores relatam o caso raro de um GIST (Tumor Estromal Gastrointestinal) múltiplo em um paciente de 16 anos. O paciente apresentou-se com quadro de hemorragia digestiva (melena). A investigação com endoscopia digestiva alta, tomografia computadorizada e ultrssom endoscópico sugeriu tumor estromal gástrico. A laparotomia apoiou a suspeita e evidenciou outras lesões em intestino delgado. O anatomopatológico confirmou o GIST nas peças com expressão positiva para CD117 (c-Kit) e CD34. O caso chama atenção porque além do GIST ser um tumor raro, correspondente a menos de 1% das neoplasias digestivas, ele aparece na maioria das vezes como tumor único e em pacientes com média de idade de 60 anos.
ABSTRACT
This work aims to report a rare case of multiple GIST (gastrointestinal stromal tumor) in a 16-year-old patient. The patient had a gastrointestinal hemorrhage (melena). The investigation made through upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, computerized tomography and endoscopic ultrasound scan suggested a gastrointestinal stromal tumor. The laparotomy confirmed the suspicion about GIST, and other lesions were found in the small intestine. The anatomophathological analysis confirmed the GIST diagnosis in the pieces with positive results for CD117 (C-kit) and CD34. The case attracts attention for presenting a rare tumor correspondent to less than 1% of digestive neoplasia; moreover, the tumor is commonly found as unique occurring in 60-years old patients on average.
