Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are common mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. Some somatic factors have been linked to an increased incidence risk. The diagnostic process for GIST poses difficulties since it bears limited resemblance to ovarian masses, given its manifestation through symptoms like abdominal pain, abdominal mass, fever, weight loss, and loss of appetite. Patients with GIST usually exhibit clinical symptoms and signs of an abdominal mass and chronic pelvic pain might look like an ovarian mass, and diagnosed as GIST on histological examination. A 50-year-old woman presented to the gynecology outpatient department with complaints of an abdominal lump accompanied by pain and decreased appetite persisting for five months, leading to a preliminary diagnosis of an ovarian mass. Further evaluation by histopathological examination was confirmed to be GIST on the final diagnosis.
