Abstract EN
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal tumors of the digestive system, although they account for only 0.1–3% of all gastrointestinal (GI) malignancies.
They can arise anywhere along the GI tract with gastric predominance.
Concurrent occurrence of GIST and gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) neoplasm is rare.
We report a 55-year-old gentleman presenting with a polyp at the GEJ and a synchronous, large, and pedunculated gastric mass at the greater curvature.
Those were treated with a wedge resection of the gastric pedunculated mass with negative margins along with transgastric submucosal resection of the GEJ polyp.
Pathological examination confirmed synchronous invasive GEJ adenocarcinoma and a high-grade gastric GIST.
