This case report describes a 52-year-old male farmer who presented with abdominal pain and bleeding for several months. Imaging revealed multiple liver abscesses and a mass arising from the second part of the duodenum. Biopsy of the mass during endoscopy indicated adenocarcinoma. The patient underwent a Whipple procedure where a 6x5cm mass was removed. Post-operative biopsy found it to be a malignant gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). The patient was referred for chemotherapy. GISTs of the duodenum are rare but often diagnosed via endoscopy with biopsy. Surgical resection is the main treatment but imatinib may help downstage tumors for less invasive surgery or as adjuvant therapy.
Malignant GIST of duodenum case report
- 1. Malignant GIST of Duodenum A Case report By Dr E Aravind
- 2. Back ground • Primary malignant tumors of the duodenum represent 0.3% of all gastro-intestinal tract tumors. • Upto 50% of these tumors are malignant • Primary malignant tumors of the duodenum must be differentiated from malignant tumors of the ampulla, pancreas and common bile duct
- 3. • The most frequent tumor of the duodenum is adenocarcinoma . • Other primary tumors are lymphomas, leiomyosarcomas, carcinoid tumors, gastrinomas, stromal tumors • The tumor can be located in any part of the duodenum but the most frequent location is the second part.
- 4. • Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) represent the most common tumor of mesenchymal origin arising in the gastrointestinal tract • Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) arising in the duodenum represent a rare entity. • Owing to the complex anatomy of the duodeno-pancreatic region, these tumors are often challenging in diagnosis
- 5. Pathologic features • GISTs in the duodenum do not differ from other GISTs in histopathologically and in immunohistochemical reaction. • Most of them express CD-117 (c-kit) and CD-34 • The mitotic count has been found to be lower in duodenal GISTs, with a median count <5/50 HPF

- 19. • Provisional Diagnosis – ? GIST of 2nd part of Duodeneum • Plan – 2 points Blood transfusion preoperative to correct anemia – Reserve 4 points of cross matched blood for surgery – Surgery – Whiples procedure • Operative Findings – A 6 X 5 cms mass in 2nd part of Duodenum
- 23. • Post operative period – Un eventfull – Sutures Removed on POD – 10
- 24. Post operative biopsy of specimen • Gross Appearance – Received 23 cms long intestinal segment with serosa showing 6X6X3.5 cm elanated nodular dark brown to grey brown to to grey white mass – C/S of intestine show loss of mucosal folds corresponding to growth remaining normal – Received omentum of 45X10X2 cms
- 25. • Microscopic Appearance – Sections studied from 6X6X3.5 cms grey white firm tumour of small intestine show the features of “Malignant Stromal Tumour of Small Intestine” possibly GIST “Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumour / Leiomyosarcoma” – Tumour is infiltrating the mucosa and into serosa, the overlying mucosa show non specific inflamation with focal ulceration. – Both resected margins are free from tumour infiltration – Omentum - Nil particular
- 27. Follow up • Case was referred to Department of Radiotherapy, GGH, KKD for further management • They referred the case to higher centre for chemotherapy
- 28. Discussion • Gastrointestinal endoscopy remains the most common diagnostic procedure in duodenal GISTs, especially in patients with intramural growth or mucosa ulceration and bleeding • It allows forceps biopsy • Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) has been found to be very helpful for esophago-gastro-duodenal GISTs, with high sensitivity and specificity rates • EUS-guided FNA cytology with immunocytochemical evaluation(CD117 & CD34) can diagnose GIST
- 29. • The great majority of duodenal mesenchymal tumors are GISTs, which have a spectrum from small indolent tumors to overt sarcomas. LMs and LMSs are rare • Metastases were in the abdominal cavity, liver, and rarely in bones and lungs but never in lymph nodes
- 30. • Treatment is complete surgical resection with clear margins (R0 resection) • There is no consensus on the optimal surgical treatment for GISTs arising from the duodenum. Operations which vary from tumour enucleation (for extramural GISTs) to pancreaticoduodenectomy for infiltrating or larger tumors • Limited resections (LR) can be performed in small tumors not infiltrating the surrounding structures, and when the papilla of Vater can be preserved • Should be done when R0 resection can be possible
- 31. • Imatinib mesylate, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, plays a key role in the management of GISTs. Its use in neoadjuvant therapy, adjuvant therapy and in tumor recurrence • In neoadjuvant setting for GISTs located in the second portion of the duodenum, it can beused for tumor downstaging in order to perform a less extensive surgery with free resection margins • This requires precise preoperative diagnosis of GIST which is not always easy to obtain
- 32. • The major limitation of Imatinib is the development of tumor resistance, which is related to the acquisition of additional c-kit mutations • Recently used drugs like receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor STI-571 used as effective therapy for GISTs
