BACKGROUND: We report an extremely rare case of concomitant huge exophytic @entity677 and @entity16970 ( @entity16970 ). CASE PRESENTATION: The @entity1 was a 67-year-old @entity1 experiencing abdominal distension since September 2006. A physical examination revealed a 25 x 30 cm hard mass that was palpable in the middle and lower left abdomen minimal intrinsic mobility and massive @entity843 . Since the admitted @entity1 was diagnosed with DIC, surgery could not be performed. The @entity1 received a platelet transfusion and the DIC was treated. Due to this treatment, the platelet count recovered to 7.0 x 10(4); @entity5 resection was performed at 16 days after admission. Laparotomy revealed a huge extraluminal @entity5 arising from the greater curvature of the stomach that measured 25 x 30 cm and had not ruptured into the peritoneal cavity or infiltrated other organs. Partial gastric resection was performed. The resected mass measured 25 x 25 x 20 cm. In cross section, the @entity5 appeared hard and homogenous with a small polycystic area. Histopathology of the resected specimen showed large spindle cell GIST with >5/50 @entity2194 ( @entity2194 ) mitotic activity. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the @entity1003 improved rapidly. CONCLUSION: Since the characteristic of @entity5 in this case was hypervascularity with @entity548 and @entity39 , @entity1003 was thought to be caused by the trapping of platelets within a large vasculized @entity5 mass.
