Abstract
Malignant gastrointestinal neuroectodermal tumor (GNET), a rare soft tissue sarcoma, is a recently described distinct clinicopathological entity. With only a few cases reported in literature till date, there is limited knowledge about the behavior as well as diagnosis of this tumor. GNET mimics several other tumors and hence presents as a diagnostic challenge to clinicians and pathologists alike. We report a case of gastrointestinal neuroectodermal tumors with liver metastasis.Entities:
