Abstract

Gastrointestinal (GI) stromal tumours (GIST’S) are most common sarcomatous tumour of GI tract. They are mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract arising from interstitial cells of Cajal. GIST represent ing 0.1-3% all GI malignancy.(1,2). GIST occur throughout the tubular GI-tract from the lower esophagus to the anus. Stomach is the most common site for GIST. Surgery remains the standard treatment for GIST. We present a case report of 65 years old male presenting with large abdominal lump, later diagnosed as Gastrointestinal stromal tumour and underwent stomach preserving sleeve gastrectomy.
