| dc.description.abstract | We present a 70-year old woman with metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) and her partner, a 79-year old man with multiple gastric GIST tumors. This tumor is considered a rare malignancy with a reported incidence of 6–13 new cases per million. Our patients were found to have different genetic mutations in the C-KIT gene as the cause of their disease but, given the rarity of this tumor, it raises a question about their possible exposure to carcinogens or another shared mechanism that might have been involved in the pathogenesis of this cancer. | en |
