FIGURE 1.4.1 Small bowel GIST. Contrast-enhanced CT (
A) and MR (
B and
C) images show a rounded hypervascular mass in the right lower quadrant (arrowheads), which proved to be an ileal GIST
with predominately exoenteric growth. Dynamic (
D) and delayed (
E) contrast-enhanced CT images show an ovoid mass
(arrowhead), which proved to be a jejunal GIST with exoenteric growth at laparotomy (
F). Although gross ulceration
is not identified at cross-sectional imaging, both cases presented as GI bleeding. Note also the relative mobility
of these lesions, which appear to shift in location on different scans.
