GIST Tumor Evaluation and Resection


Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST) are primarily caused by genetic mutations. Symptoms may include abdominal pain, bleeding, or mass in the abdomen. To determine the cause, consult Dr. Randy Lehman at Liberty Clinic. Diagnostics include imaging and biopsy. Treatment involves surgical resection for localized cases and targeted therapies like imatinib for advanced GIST. Adjuvant therapy may follow surgery. Regular monitoring is essential. Early detection and intervention are crucial for a better prognosis. If you suspect GIST symptoms, book an appointment with Dr. Randy Lehman at Liberty Clinic for proper evaluation and guidance.
