Imaging in gynecological disease (19): clinical and ultrasound features of extragastrointestinal stromal tumors (<scp>eGIST</scp>)

Abstract

On ultrasound, eGISTs were usually solid, non-uniform pelvic or abdominal lobular tumors of mixed echogenicity, with or without cystic areas, with rich vascularization and no shadowing. The presence of a tumor with these features, without connection to the bowel wall, and not originating from the uterus or adnexa, is highly suspicious for eGIST. Copyright © 2020 ISUOG.
