==Overview==
Prior to the advent and use of [[electron microscopy]], gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) were classified as [[smooth muscle]] [[tumors]] such as [[Leiomyoma|leiomyomas]] or [[Leiomyosarcoma|leiomyosarcomas]]. In 1983, Mazur and Clark and Schaldenbrand and Appleman in 1984 were the first to describe gastrointestinal stromal tumors as an independent entity of intra-[[Abdomen|abdominal]] [[Tumor|tumors]] that were neither [[carcinomas]] nor exhibit [[histologic]] features of [[smooth muscle]] or [[nerve cells]]. In 1998, Kindblom et al described the origin of GIST as pluripotential [[Mesenchymal stem cell|mesenchymal stem cells]] which were programmed to differentiate into the [[interstitial cell of Cajal]]. In 1998 Hirota and others were the first to describe c-kit [[Proto-oncogene|(proto-oncogene]]) [[Mutation|mutations]] as the cause of GIST. In 2001, Joensuu was the first to report successful treatment of [[Patient|patients]] with advanced GIST on [[Molecule|molecular]]-targeted [[therapy]] ([[imatinib]]).

Overview

Prior to the advent and use of electron microscopy, gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) were classified as smooth muscle tumors such as leiomyomas or leiomyosarcomas. In 1983, Mazur and Clark and Schaldenbrand and Appleman in 1984 were the first to describe gastrointestinal stromal tumors as an independent entity of intra-abdominal tumors that were neither carcinomas nor exhibit histologic features of smooth muscle or nerve cells. In 1998, Kindblom et al described the origin of GIST as pluripotential mesenchymal stem cells which were programmed to differentiate into the interstitial cell of Cajal. In 1998 Hirota and others were the first to describe c-kit (proto-oncogene) mutations as the cause of GIST. In 2001, Joensuu was the first to report successful treatment of patients with advanced GIST on molecular-targeted therapy (imatinib).
