case_images: Histologically, the tumor was composed of bland spindle cells (Figures 1 and 2A).
case_images: Gastrointestinal stromal tumor cell histology.. Notes: (A) Tumor cells were cytologically bland. No areas of necrosis or atypical mitoses were detected (hematoxylin and eosin stain; original magnification: 10x). (B) Tumor cells expressed strong and diffuse positivity for CD117 (KIT) (original magnification: 20x). (C) Tumor cells expressed strong and diffuse positivity for DOG-1 (original magnification: 20x).

case_images: Histologically, the tumor was composed of bland spindle cells (Figures 1 and 2A). Immunocytochemical stains revealed strong cytoplasmic expression of CD117, DOG1, and CD34 (Figure 2B and C).

case_images: Terminator chemistry, on a 3500 Dx Genetic Analyzer. The test results showed a single mutation in exon 17 of the c-KIT gene (pN822K; Figure 3), confirmed in two independent amplifications, while the PDGFRalpha mutational status was wild type.
