| Background The purpose of this research was to inspect the tumor landscapes, surgical particulars, and survival distribution of patients of gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) that were surgically removed at the National Cancer Institute, Cairo University. Materials and methods Patients who submitted an application to our clinic and were ultimately diagnosed with gastric GIST were included in this retrospective analysis. Patients’ ages and sexes were recorded, as well as their original tumor sites, histological features, staging, treatments received, treatment methods, and survival rates. Results There were a total of 23 patients, with a female to male ratio of 1 : 3, who had a diagnosis of gastric GIST. They averaged 56 years of age. Tumor sizes, on average was 11.2 cm. In 18 (78.3%) cases, the tumor was located at the distal end, whereas in 5 (21.7%) cases it was located at the proximal end. 19 patients underwent first surgery, whereas only 5 got neoadjuvant treatment focused on the primary tumor. 17 (73.9%) individuals (73.9%) had sleeve gastrectomy, making it the most prevalent operation. 7 days was the typical duration of stay in the hospital. Two patients showed postoperative gastric leakage; the first was treated conservatively, while the second was treated surgically and resulted in a total gastrectomy. With regard to risk categorization, 10 (43.5%) patients had tumors with a high level of risk, 9 (39.1%) had tumors with an intermediate risk, whereas just 4 (17.4%) had tumors with a low risk (). 16 (69.6%) patients received supplemental targeted treatment. The median duration of patient follow-up was 42.6 months, and all patients were tracked. The cumulative overall survival at 5 years was 82.1%, while the cumulative disease-free survival was 65.4%. Conclusion For individuals who need their gastric GIST removed, extensive local resection that preserves the stomach yields excellent functional and oncological results. | ||
