Gastrointestinal stromal tumours of the stomach: Cytological and immunocytochemical diagnostic features of two cases diagnosed by endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration

摘要: The present study reports the diagnostic utility of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNAC) in two patients affected by gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) stomach. Clinically, demonstrated skin pallor, melena, gastric discomfort and pain that had lasted three days or weeks. cytological findings are discussed; these were strongly supported immunocytochemical procedures performed on cell blocks further confirmed following post-surgical histopathological examination. crucial aim GIST management is to determine a correct diagnosis early-phase disease order realize an adequate curative surgical resection before tumour becomes unresectable metastatic. Moreover, pre-surgical differential GISTs from other mesenchymal neoplasms may be easily made EUS-FNAC, features.
