Outstanding Response to Sorafenib in a Patient with Metastatic Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumour
Gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST) is the most common sarcoma and can be seen in any part of the gastrointestinal tract. The effect of tyrosine kinase inhibitors varies with mutation status in receptor tyrosine kinase KIT and in platelet-derived growth factor receptor A (PDGFRA). This case prese...

The patient started fourth-line treatment with sorafenib with an impressive response to a point at which metastases intra-abdominally and in the liver could be resected.
