Although gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST) occurs generally in the digestive tract,omental GIST is very *** report the first case of an adult greater omental GIST with a new platelet-derived growth factor receptor α gene(PDGFRA)-mutation with hemoperitoneum.A 43-year-old man was admitted to our hospital complaining of acute abdominal *** contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed a huge mass in the right abdominal cavity,and a large accumulation of fluid in the pelvic cavity,suggesting *** diagnosed the rupture as an intra-abdominal tumor,and an emergency tumorectomy was performed with resection of the greater *** tumor was located in the distal right side ofthe greater omentum,and showed no continuity with the gastric *** tumor occurred primarily in the greater *** resected tumor was about 19 cm × 12 cm × 14 cm in diameter,and weighed 1529 ***,the tumor was composed of epithelioidshaped cells with high cellularity,and was positive for CD117 and CD34,and negative for S-100,α-smooth muscle *** mitosis was 6/50 under high power *** case showed exon 18 mutation of PDGFRA with 846(Asp to Glu) substitution,848(Asn to Lys) *** is the first report of this PDGFRA mutation in omental GIST,and this might play an important role in the tumorigenesis of this *** on these findings,the tumor was diagnosed as high risk GIST primarily occurring in the greater *** patient was treated with imatinib at a dose of 400 mg/d as adjuvant chemotherapy,and has been followed up for 24 mo with no evidence of recurrence.
