Abstract

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors are derived from the intersticial cells of cajal, most of them manifest with non- specific symptoms. A 62 old year male patient complained of right lower abdominal tenderness, surgical procedure revealed a tumor in the cecum. Complete resection was performed. Histology showed a GIST of the cecum. Accordingly , rare tumors of the cecum including GIST should be considered in the differential diagnosis of appendicitis.
