[C-KIT in gastrointestinal stromal tumors and associated malignancies: A Study in a population with genetic isolation].

Introduction: Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are the most common mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. Numerous studies have reported the association between GIST and other neoplasms.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the possible association between GIST and other tumors in a genetically isolated population.
