胃肠间质瘤的外科治疗问题

 靶向治疗的问世使得胃肠间质瘤（GIST）的治疗发生了革命性的变化，但依然应强调外科原则和技巧在治疗GIST中的重要性。对位于食管、胃肠道、结直肠的GIST病例的治疗经验进行了总结。术中外科医师应尽可能完整切除肿瘤，如果术中无法完整切除，可予伊马替尼治疗。由于GIST甚少经淋巴途径转移，故不必常规行淋巴结清扫术。

In this review, we describe the experience in the treatment of GIST located in esophagus, gastrointestinalinal tract and colorectum. During operation, the surgeon shouldi resect the tumor completely. If the tumor can not to be resected completely, treatment should be managed by imatinib mesylate(Gleevec). Because GISTs seldom appear lymph metastases, it is not necessary to perform lymph node dissection.
