Abstract:
Extragastrointestinal stromal tumor (EGIST) has been reported to occur only rarely, and the cases of this disease appearing as cystic masses are also known to be very infrequent. Along with a review of the related articles, we report here on a case of EGIST arising from the omentum that was seen as a multiloculated large cystic mass with multiple thick septa and a solid component.
