A preoperative risk prediction model for high malignancy potential gastrointestinal stromal tumors of the stomach

Gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) exhibit various degrees of aggression and malignant potential. However, no systematic preoperative evaluation strategy to predict the malignancy potential of gastric GISTs has yet been developed. This study aimed to develop a reliable and easy-to-use preoperative risk-scoring model for predicting high malignancy potential (HMP) gastric GISTs.The data of 542 patients with pathologically confirmed...
