A 40-year-old female with a history of P2L1D1 and no significant comorbidities presented with three months of progressive abdominal pain and a rapidly enlarging mass resembling a 30- to 32-week gravid uterus and heavy menstrual bleeding.

Here, we present a unique case of a locally advanced ileal gastrointestinal stromal tumor complicated by generalized purulent peritonitis, emphasizing the diagnostic and management challenges associated with this condition.
