ABSTRACT
Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) can develop throughout the entire gastrointestinal tract, but these tumours are usually found in the stomach and small intestine. In this case, a rare GIST arising from the anal canal was investigated using high-frequency endoanal ultrasound and external three-dimensional ultrasound with tomographic ultrasound imaging. The endoanal approach revealed the inner structure of the tumour. External ultrasound was used to determine the relationship between the lesion and surrounding tissues. In the limited reports of anal canal GISTs, no other lesions have been correctly diagnosed preoperatively or displayed in detail on imaging. The multilayer structure of the anal sphincter and these lesions can be clearly displayed by a variety of ultrasound imaging methods, which are nonradiative, low-cost and easily accessible. Modern ultrasound has the potential for broad application in anal canal tumour diagnosis and surveillance.
