ABSTRACT

A 35-year-old female patient without previous medical history, evaluated by surgical department in Honduras La Ceiba in May 2010 was presented in this paper. The patient referred occasionally abdominal pain located in epigastrium, mesogastrium since seven months ago, associated to digestive disorders and vomiting referred one episode of melena three months before. On physical examination a large 10 cm abdominal tumor was found, easy to move, painless on palpation without any signs of peritoneal reaction, abdominal ultrasound, blood test were performed, no other diagnostic studies could not be achieved because the condition of the country. Exploratory laparotomy was done and a large tumor that occupied more than a third part of the greater gastric curvature of the antrum and body of the stomach without palpable lymphadenopathy. Distal subtotal gastrectomy with Billroth II gastrojejunostomy antecolic, Polya technique was performed. The histopathology report confirmed the diagnosis of GIST. The patient was discharged with satisfactory evolution.
