Abstract
Sung-Woo Park, Wan Lee, Gi-Young Huh, Moon-Kee Chung From the Departments of Urology and Pathology, College of Medicine, Pusan National University, Busan, Korea Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) are the most common mesenchymal malignancy of the gastrointestinal tract. They are diagnosed by combination of c-kit and CD34. We report a case of extragastrointestinal stromal tumor originating from the prostate diagnosed after retropubic open prostatectomy. The patient underwent additional retropubic radical prostatectomy again after 2 weeks. The possibility of secondary involvement by a rectal GIST was excluded by radiological, intraoperative and pathologic findings. (Korean J Urol 2008;49:383-385)
