BMC Surg 2024; 24:141. [PMID: 38720315 PMCID: PMC11080177 DOI: 10.1186/s12893-024-02434-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2023] [Accepted: 05/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal approach for ensuring both complete resection and preservation of anal function in rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) remains unknown. The aim of this study was to clarify short-term and long-term outcomes after robotic radical surgery for rectal GIST. METHODS A total of 13 patients who underwent robotic radical surgery for rectal GIST between December 2011 and April 2022 were included. All robotic procedures were performed using a systematic approach. A supplemental video of robotic radical surgery for rectal GIST is attached. The short-term outcome was the incidence of postoperative complications during the first 30 days after surgery. Surgical outcomes were retrieved from a prospective database. Long-term outcomes, including overall survival and recurrence-free survival, were determined in all patients. RESULTS Median distance from the tumor to the anal verge was 4.0 cm. Surgical margins were negative in all patients. Two patients underwent neoadjuvant imatinib therapy. All patients underwent sphincter-preserving surgery. None underwent conversion to open or laparoscopic surgery. The incidence of postoperative Clavien-Dindo grade II and grade ≥ III complications was 7.7% and 0%, respectively. The median postoperative hospital stay was 7 days. Twelve patients (92.3%) underwent stoma closure within 5 months of the initial surgery. Median follow-up time was 76 months. The 5-year overall survival and recurrence-free survival rates were both 100%. None of the patients had recurrence. CONCLUSION Short-term and long-term outcomes after radical robotic surgery for rectal GIST were favorable. Robotic surgery might be a useful surgical approach for rectal GIST.

Abstract
As one of the most common mesenchymal malignancies in the digestive system, gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) occur throughout the alimentary tract with diversified oncological characteristics. With the advent of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor era, the treatment regimens of patients with GISTs have been revolutionized and GISTs have become the paradigm of multidisciplinary therapy. However, surgery resection remains recognized as the potentially curative management for the radical resection and provided with favorable oncological outcomes. The existing available surgery algorithms in clinical practice primarily incorporate open procedure, and endoscopic and laparoscopic surgery together with combined operation techniques. The performance of various surgery methods often refers to the consideration of risk evaluation of recurrence and metastases; the degree of disease progression; size, location, and growth pattern of tumor; general conditions of selected patients; and indications and safety profile of various techniques. In the present review, we summarize the fundamental principle of surgery of GISTs based on risk assessment as well as tumor size, location, and degree of progress with an emphasis on the indications, strengths, and limitations of current surgery techniques.

Efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant imatinib therapy for patients with locally advanced rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumors: A multi-center cohort study. Front Pharmacol 2022; 13:950101. [PMID: 36238544 PMCID: PMC9552070 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2022.950101] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2022] [Accepted: 08/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Several issues on neoadjuvant imatinib therapy remain controversial despite its widespread application for rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST). We aimed to describe the clinicopathological characteristics of this specific population, and compare the surgical and oncologic outcomes between patients with or without neoadjuvant imatinib therapy. Patients and methods: A cohort of 58 consecutive locally advanced rectal GIST patients receiving surgical treatment between January 2007 and July 2019 at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center and Yunnan Cancer Hospital was retrospectively analyzed. Recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) were estimated using Kaplan-Meier method. Results: There were 33 (56.9%) patients who received neoadjuvant imatinib therapy. Among them, 20 (60.6%) patients had partial response (PR) as their best response, 11 (33.3%) patients had stable disease (SD), and 2 (6.1%) patients had progressive disease (PD). The median tumor size reduced from 5.2 to 4.0 cm after treatment (p < 0.001), and an attained “maximal response” was primarily achieved (32/33) on the 12th month after treatment. The most common adverse event was anemia. There were 27 adverse events occurred, most of which were grade 1 (19/27). With respect to intraoperative and postoperative surgical outcomes, no significant difference was found between patients with or without neoadjuvant Imatinib therapy except that patients with neoadjuvant treatment had a significant higher rate of preventive ileostomy (p = 0.004). Patients received neoadjuvant treatment had a superior 2-years RFS outcome than those without, though the difference was no significant (91.7% vs. 78.9%, p = 0.203). There were no significant differences in the 2-years OS rates (95.2% vs. 91.3%, p = 0.441). Conclusion: Neoadjuvant imatinib therapy is an effective and safe treatment for locally advanced rectal GISTs. Further studies are warranted to validate the long-term prognostic benefit for patients with rectal GISTs receiving neoadjuvant imatinib therapy.

Abstract
Background: Significant survival benefit of adjuvant imatinib therapy has been observed in gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). However, the impact of neoadjuvant imatinib on prognosis of GIST remains unclear. This meta-analysis aimed to compare the prognostic impact between upfront surgery and neoadjuvant imatinib plus surgery on GIST. Methods: A comprehensive literature search was performed to identify eligible studies up to 30 Sep 2021, through PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library. Studies compared the impact of upfront surgery and neoadjuvant imatinib plus surgery on disease-free (DFS) or overall survival (OS) in patients with GIST were selected. Results: Seven eligible studies with 17,171 patients were included. The reduction rates of tumor size in rectal and mixed site GIST were 33% and 29.8%, respectively. Neoadjuvant imatinib was not significantly associated with DFS compared with no-neoadjuvant therapy in rectal GIST (HR: 0.71, 95% CI: 0.35–1.41). The OS of rectal GIST was significantly improved by neoadjuvant imatinib compared with no-neoadjuvant therapy (HR: 0.36, 95% CI: 0.17–0.75). Conclusion: Neoadjuvant imatinib therapy contributed to tumor shrinkage and R0 resection of rectal GIST. Neoadjuvant imatinib plus surgery significantly improved overall survival of rectal GIST in comparison with upfront surgery.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are the most common mesenchymal tumor of the gastrointestinal tract, with an annual incidence of 10–15 cases per million. However, rectal GIST has a low incidence, accounting for approximately 0.1% of all rectal tumors. The treatment of rectal GISTs is still controversial and the relative unified guidelines and consensus opinions are inadequate. Treatment is based primarily on the clinical experience of the physician. The widespread application of neoadjuvant imatinib therapy allows diversification of treatment, especially in the choice of surgical methods. Herein, we reviewed the most recent literature and summarized the new progress in rectal tumor treatment, with the aim of providing patients with more systematic and individualized therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most frequent potentially malignant mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. The treatment of GISTs has been revolutionized since imatinib and other tyrosine kinase inhibitors were introduced for the treatment of GISTs, which inhibit the tyrosine kinases c‑KIT and platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) alpha. Even after the introduction of this targeted treatment GISTs can only be cured by surgical resection. With interdisciplinary multimodal treatment the prognosis of metastasized GIST can now be further improved by surgical resection of the primary tumor and the metastases, potentially leading to a cure. Neoadjuvant therapy can reduce the extent of surgical resection and hereby enable organ preservation and reduce surgical morbidity. To evaluate molecular and clinical predictors and to offer an optimal therapeutic plan, patients with GISTs and certainly patients with advanced GISTs should be evaluated by interdisciplinary sarcoma boards.
