GIST is a rare type of sarcoma found in the digestive system, most often in the wall of the stomach. Some GISTS behave in a non cancerous (benign) way. Or they can behave in a cancerous (malignant) way.
Other rare types of cancer in the GI tract include leiomyosarcomas (cancers of smooth muscle cells), angiosarcomas (cancers of blood vessel cells), and peripheral nerve sheath tumors (cancers of cells that support and protect nerves). GISTs are different from these other GI tract cancers.t is important to understand that GISTs are not the same as other, more common types of GI tract cancers. Cancers can occur anywhere in the GI tract â from the esophagus to the anus. Usually, these cancers start in glandular cells that line most of the GI tract.
