Incidence • Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumours GIST are the most common mesenchymal tumours of the gastrointestinal tract. • The incidence is 15 to 20 cases per million population per year for symptomatic and clinically detected GIST. Kindblom, LG et al : Ann Oncol 2002: 13 (Suppl 5):157, 2002.
Organ distribution Stomach - 70% Small bowel - 20% Colorectum, oesophagus, EGIST - 10%.

Background • Surgical resection is feasible in approximately two thirds of patients with primary non-metastatic disease. • Approximately half of these patients eventually develop intra-peritoneal recurrence or liver metastases. • The 5- and 10-year survival after curative resection is 32% to 78% and 19% to 63%, respectively.

Background • Imatinib is the effective therapy for metastatic and inoperable GIST. • A sufficient down staging may allow surgical resection either with a curative intent before or at the time of resistance.
Background • Stable disease rate 30% • Partial response rate 50% • Complete response rate 2%.
Patients • Twenty five cases of locally advanced primary, recurrent or metastatic GIST treated preoperatively with Imatinib were identified from the sarcoma database in our Unit.
Design • Sex, race, age at presentation. • Site of primary tumour and extent of disease at presentation. • Dose of Imatinib prior to the operation, side effects and duration of treatment. • Maximal tumour diameter and radiological response. • Surgical procedure and completeness of resection. • Disease status at last follow-up.

Postoperative survival in metastatic and recurrent versus locally advanced GISTS Locally advanced GISTs 94% Reccurent/metastatic GISTS 71%

Overall survival Median 32monts (range 8-77 months)
Summary 1 • 2/7 of the metastatic and recurrent GIST patients achieved macroscopic clearance . • 5/7 alive after a median period of 46 months (range 20-77)
Summary 2 • 94% of the locally advanced group are alive at median FU 9.5 months (range 5-52). • Median duration on Imatinib was 27 months for recurrent and metastatic GIST versus 9 months for locally advanced.
Summary 3 • R2 resection was associated with worse survival. • Absence of pathological response was associated with 50% survival versus 90% for partial response.
Conclusions • Recurrent /metastatic patients required longer duration of treatment before surgery and were less likely to achieve the goal of complete macroscopic clearance. • Hence the survival was inferior to the locally advanced group.
