https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38112178

This study describes the epidemiological, clinical, and survival profiles of patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) in North Africa and the Middle East, and highlights the consistent presentation with global reports and the lack of access to molecular profiles and high cost associated with advanced treatment in this population.
