Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor of Prostate / 대한비뇨기과학회지

ABSTRACT

Gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST) are the most common mesenchymal malignancy of the gastrointestinal tract. They are diagnosed by combination of c-kit and CD34. We report a case of extragastrointestinal stromal tumor originating from the prostate diagnosed after retropubic open prostatectomy. The patient underwent additional retropubic radical prostatectomy again after 2 weeks. The possibility of secondary involvement by a rectal GIST was excluded by radiological, intraoperative and pathologic findings.
