“…Many series do not present any case with this finding (3,22,29,30,32) , which is described in up to 2.5% of cases (16) . In our cases, we found one case presenting lymphadenopathy, with mitotic index lower than five mitosis per HPF.…”

“…Clinical manifestations are unspecific and depend on the lesion site. Digestive hemorrhage and abdominal pain are the most frequent symptoms found (16,21,23,30,32) . Our case comprised 14 (66.7%) female patients and 7 (33.3%) male patients, with average age of 61.6 years old, presenting pain or abdominal discomfort as the most frequent symptom.…”

“…A systematic review of all pre-treatment and followup CT studies was performed in consensus by two oncoradiology fellowship-trained radiologists (ADB and SHT) with 5 and 8 years' experience. A total of 803 CTs were reviewed (mean 5; range, [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20]. Imaging features of the primary tumour that were recorded included the site of origin in SB, largest dimension, margin (well circumscribed or ill defined/infiltrative), outline (smooth/ undulating or irregular/lobulated), growth pattern (exophytic, intraluminal or combined), tumour heterogeneity (homogeneous or heterogeneous), presence and percentage of cystic/necrotic component (Hounsfield units # 20), presence of calcifications and complications [tumour-bowel fistula (TBF), bowel obstruction or intraperitoneal rupture].…”

“…11 Imaging features of GISTs arising at different sites of the GI tract have been conventionally described in the literature as a single cohort without site-specific analysis. [12][13][14][15] In the past, our group has published the imaging features of GISTs arising at uncommon sites such as the oesophagus, duodenum and anorectal region. [16][17][18] To the best of our knowledge, there is no literature focusing dedicatedly on the imaging features of SB GISTs (excluding duodenal GISTs, which have a risk stratification different from jejunal and ileal GISTs).…”

“…Gastric lesions are characterized by a homogeneous enhancement, while small bowel lesions are more heterogeneous. Distal small bowel tumors and those arising from the sigmoid colon and rectum may be erroneously identified as gynecologic cancers [16][17][18][19][20]. Gross histopathologic findings typically include a fish-flesh appearance of soft consistency.…”
