Ye YJ et al. - In a study to explore the present application of diagnosis and management of hepatic metastases from gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST), it was found that the liver is a common metastatic site for GIST. Appropriate initial evaluation remains paramount for selecting the correct management strategy. Multi-disciplinary management of this disease is important for both curative and palliative treatment in these pts. Combining repeated surgery with tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment may be the most effective management for GIST pts with liver metastases.
