Resumen La presentación del tumor del estroma gastrointestinal (GIST) ileal como un abdomen agudo no es frecuente. Presentamos el caso de un varón de 75 años que debutó en forma de cuadros suboclusivos de repetición y hemorragia digestiva, siendo diagnosticado de GIST ileal mediante cápsula endoscópica. Fue sometido a cirugía con resección de dos segmentos de asa de intestino delgado y múltiples implantes, asociado a terapia adyuvante con Imatinib con posterior recidiva tumoral.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is the most common mesenchymal tumor of the gastrointestinal tract which earlier was classified as leiomyomas, leiomyosarcomas and leiomyoblastomas. These are known to have specific markers and are important to diagnose as targeted chemotherapy is available. Our case represents one of the ends of the spectrum of clinical presentation of gastrointestinal tumors – an aggressive large mass at a younger than the usual age of presentation. Though challenging, imaging diagnosis of GIST is very important as it can guide the confirmation of the same by identification of the markers on pathology.
