Clinical Challenges in Colorectal Surgery: Rectal GIST

You are faced with a patient complaining of pelvic fullness. On DRE, you feel a submucosal bulge without palpating a tumour in the lumen. A CT scan confirms a pelvic mass. The biopsy reveals a spindle cell type gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST) positive for CD117.
Join Dr. Carole Richard, Dr. François Dagbert and Dr. Maher Al Khaldi in their conversation about the diagnosis and management of rectal GIST.
Learning objectives
- To explain the origin of rectal GISTs
- To recognize the prognostic factors associated with rectal GISTs
- To understand the management of rectal GISTs in the era of Imatinib
- To list the surgical approaches for rectal GIST resection

*Ad referenced in episode: A team at the Brooke Army Medical Center is working to better define proficiency-based metrics for competency in commonly performed robotic general surgery procedures. If you are a general surgery resident or practicing surgeon who performs robotic assisted cholecystectomies or inguinal hernia repairs, reach out to the PI, Robert Laverty, MD, at rblaverty@gmail.com for more information on how you could be compensated $500 per video submitted of each (up to $1000 per surgeon).
