Abstract
- Upper GI bleeding from GIST is rare in Africa. The C‐kit‐negative variant is uncommon worldwide. We report a case of a 42‐year‐old woman managed for upper GI bleeding secondary to stomach GIST, negative for CD117 but positive for DOG 1 and CD 34. The 1‐year postsurgery review is uneventful.
