Hypothesis: Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are aggressive, rare, and difficult-to-curt gastrointestinal turners. We believe that the clinical behavior of these tumors can be predicted by reproducible prognostic factors.Design and Setting: A retrospective review of all patients (N = 70) with GIST treated at a tertiary care center from 1973 to 1998.Patients: Adequate data for evaluation were available for 69 patients. Male-female distribution was 40:29. Median age was 60 years. Median follow-up duration was 38 months.Main Outcome Measures: Tumor grade, stage, and histologic subtype at presentation; effect of grade, surgery and adjuvant therapy on recurrence, salvage, and survival.Results: Tumor distribution included 61% in the upper, 23%;, in the middle, and 16% in the lower digestive tract, with a median tumor size of 7.9 cm (range, 1.8-25 cm). Tumors with more than 1 mitosis per 10 high-power fields constituted 57% of neoplasia in the series. Distant disease at initial visit occurred in 49% of patients. Complete gross resection occurred in 59% of patients. After complete resection, the 5-year survival rate was 42%, compared with 9% after incomplete resection (hazard ratio=0.27, P
