Article Synopsis
- Spontaneous hemoperitoneum is a rare but serious condition, and gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) can be a difficult-to-diagnose cause of this condition due to its infrequency.
- A 76-year-old Japanese man experienced sudden abdominal pain and was eventually diagnosed with a high-risk extraluminal gastric GIST after imaging and exploratory surgery.
- This case underscores the importance of follow-up imaging like CT and FDG-PET/CT in identifying GIST and emphasizes the necessity for surgical intervention to investigate unexplained abdominal bleeding.
