Abstract:
The incidence of small and micro gastrointestinal stromal tumors is increasing significantly because of the enhanced health consciousness and advanced endoscopic technology. But there still is controversial in the biological behavior and clinical treatment of GIST. The treatment of the GIST with endoscopic technology has obvious advantages. This method can remove tumor and avoid significant trauma. In this paper, the biological behavior, clinical evaluation and endoscopic treatment of the GIST are discussed.
