Abstract
Gastric stromal tumors are common mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. Common clinical manifestations include abdominal pain, bowel obstruction, gastrointestinal bleeding, and abdominal mass. Gastric stromal tumors show a histological feature of spontaneous differentiation. Ultrasound examination plays an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of gastric stromal tumors. Here we review the application of ultrasonography in the diagnosis and treatment of gastric stromal tumors.
