Abstract

We present the case of a 46-year-old patient diagnosed with a large solid tumor localized in the right mesentery, and due to the mesenteric position and tumor structure, diagnostic suspicion of GIST was proposal as the most frequent tumor lesion of this localization. After a few days, the patient was discharged from the hospital without postoperative complication, in further follow-up without relapse.
