Gastric tuberculosis with concomitant stromal tumour of stomach (GIST).

Gastric tuberculosis is an extremely rare condition because of unfavorable circumstances in stomach due to low pH, high motility and lack of lymphoid tissue. All these discourage the development of tuberculous lesion. Similarly, simultaneous stromal tumour of stomach is also a rare entity. We present a rare case of tuberculosis of stomach with no evidence of pulmonary involvement and a concomitant stromal tumour of the stomach. This unique case illustrates the need for a high index of suspicion in order to diagnose this rare condition, as this can present in patients with no particular risk factors or minimal symptoms.
