Abstract
Gastric adenocarcinoma may coexist with tumors of other histological types. The synchronous occurrence of gastric adenocarcinoma and gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) has rarely been reported in the literature. It is still not known whether such an association represents an incidental coexistence or indicates a similar pathogenesis in the simultaneous development of tumors of different histological types. Here we report a case of an exoluminal GIST that was confused with a metastatic lymph node in early gastric cancer.
