N2  - Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are mesenchymal tumours expressing a protooncogene protein called CD117 detected by immunohistochemistry. GISTs are rare and constitute about 1-3% of all gastrointestinal malignancies, nevertheless they are the commonest type of GI mesenchymal tumours. GISTs are usually discovered as an incidental finding during operation, abdominal imaging or during endoscopy.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
