Gastrointestinal stromal tumor of the small intestine with lung metastasis

Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) represent 1% of primary gastrointestinal cancers. These tumors most frequently metastasise to the liver and peritoneum and rarely to the lungs. We report the case of a 79-year-old woman with gastrointestinal stromal tumor of the small intestine and pulmonary...
