RESUMEN
A 21-year-old woman with bloody stool was referred to our hospital with multiple submucosal tumors at the posterior and anterior wall of the gastric angle under upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Both of the tumors were diagnosed with gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST)by EUS-FNA, then laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with D1 lymph node dissection was performed. The size of those tumors were 47 mm and 15 mm respectively, and pathological examination revealed multiple lymph nodes metastases. Neither KIT nor PDGFRA mutation was found. She had received postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy with imatinib mesylate for 3 years. No sign of recurrence has been confirmed thereafter. GISTs in young adults are rare and their oncological features are considered to be different from common type of GIST.

A 62-year-old man underwent radical surgery for the treatment of remnant gastric cancer with mesojejunal lymph node metastasis. According to the 15th edition of the Japanese Gastric Cancer Association, a histological diagnosis of B-35-A, type 3, tub2>tub1, pT3(SS), pN3a(10/37), cM0, CY0, pStage â ¢B was made. All lymph node metastases were recognized in the mesojejunum. Adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 plus docetaxel was initiated after 4 weeks of surgery. The patient is still alive without recurrence after 1 year of surgery. Thus, radical surgery with dissection of the mesojejunum and intensive adjuvant chemotherapy might improve the prognosis in a remnant gastric cancer patient with mesojejunal lymph node metastasis.

A 54-year-old woman was presented with the intraabdominal mass to our hospital. Abdominal CT showed 22 cm tumor of the stomach with invasion to the pancreas and the spleen. Upper GI endoscopy showed submucosal tumor at the stomach body, and endoscopic US showed low echoic tumor. The tumor was diagnosed as gastric GIST by biopsy with c-kit positive cells. After 4 months of neoadjuvant therapy with imatinib, she underwent total gastrectomy, distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy. Histopathologically, there were no viable tumor cells in the resected specimen. The patient has no evidence of recurrence at 8 months post operation.
