| Abstract | Objective To investigate the clinicopathological features and clinical efficacy among 101 cases of rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) and to investigate the significance of imatinib mesylate (IM) neoadjuvant therapy. Methods The clinicopathological features, treatment methods, perioperative data, and prognosis of the patients were summarized and analysed in 101 patients with rectal GISTs who received treatment in the Gastrointestinal Surgery of West China Hospital of Sichuan University and the Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University from August 2002 to November 2020 in China. Results A total of 101 patients, including 64 males and 37 females, were aged from 22 to 79 years (55.4 ± 12.2 years). Among the 70 patients who underwent direct surgery, 8 were very low risk cases, 10 were low risk cases, 7 were intermediate risk cases, and 45 were high risk cases. Cox regression analysis showed that postoperative IM adjuvant treatment improved the disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) of 52 intermediate and high risk patients. Among the 31 patients who received neoadjuvant therapy, the objective response rate (ORR) was 83.9% (26/31), and the disease control rate (DCR) reached 96.8% (30/31). Subgroup analysis was also conducted based on the tumour diameter. (1) Among the 36 patients with a diameter ≤ 5 cm, two patients received IM neoadjuvant therapy, while 34 patients received direct surgery. Neither univariate nor Cox regression analysis found that neoadjuvant therapy affected DFS and OS. (2) Among the 65 patients with a diameter > 5 cm, 29 received IM neoadjuvant therapy, and 36 received direct surgery. Patients who underwent neoadjuvant therapy had less blood loss (P = 0.022), shorter postoperative hospital stay (P = 0.001), increased anal retention rate (93.1% vs. 72.2%, P = 0.031), and decreased enterostomy rate (10.3% vs. 33.3%, P = 0.037) than those who underwent direct surgery. Cox regression analysis suggested that neoadjuvant therapy and postoperative IM adjuvant therapy improved DFS. Conclusion Rectal GISTs are relatively rare and highly malignant tumors. Postoperative oral IM therapy can improve the DFS and OS of intermediate and high risk patients. In patients with rectal GISTs with diameters > 5 cm, IM neoadjuvant therapy can improve anal retention rate, preserve the structure and function of the organs, reduce enterostomy rate, and improve prognosis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
