A 58-year-old woman presented with epigastric pain and discomfort was admitted to the endoscopy unit. The patient underwent multislice computed tomography that showed a mass arising from the posterior wall of the stomach measuring 35×26 mm, it appeared well defined, hypodense with homogenous soft tissue density. The surrounding fat planes are clear. The patient underwent upper digestive endoscopy. The scope revealed a globular polypoid mass protruding from the posterior wall of the stomach just beneath the gastroesophageal junction. There is an ulcer over the tip of the polyp (highly suggestive of GIST#).
