Abstract

Currently, the standard treatment of recurrent gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) is life-long targeted therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Imatinib is administered as a first-line therapy. Due to the high mutational potential of tumor cells the secondary drug resistance develops in an overwhelming number of patients, which leads to the necessity of switching to second (sunitinib) and third (regorafenib) line therapy. In addition, the role of the surgical method in the complex treatment of advanced GIST has recently been updated. This article gives an example of long-term follow-up and treatment of a patient with recurrent small bowel GIST. The effectiveness of the combined approach in the treatment of this complex category of patients has been demonstrated.
