title: [Pregnancy and extra-gastrointestinal stromal tumor: an exceptional association].
abstract: Extra-gastrointestinal stromal tumors (EGIST) are rare entities. The coexistence of a gastrointestinal stromal tumor and pregnancy is exceptional. We describe a case of this association, three years after the first diagnosis of EGIST made during exploratory laparotomy for abdominal-pelvic mass. We report the diagnostic difficulties and management of pregnancy on recurrence of EGIST tumor.
