Abstract:
Minimally invasive radiological procedures can lead to an improvement in the prognosis and the clinical symptoms in cases of metastases of gastro-intestinal stromal tumors (GIST) in the context of multimodal therapy concepts. In the context of interdisciplinary therapy decision-making radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and transarterial tumor embolization should be considered.
