Abstract
This is a report of an old lady diagnosed with gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST) of the stomach with malignant potential and managed with subtotal gastrectomy. The patient showed good recovery. Four years postsurgery followup without any chemo-radiotherapy did not show any evidence of recurrent disease. Complete curative resection without any extensive lymphadenectomy has proven to provide four years disease-free survival.
