Prognostic value of KIT/PDGFRA mutations in gastrointestinal stromal tumors: a meta-analysis.

World journal of surgical oncology - 28 Mar 2014

Zong Liang, Chen Ping

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The postulated relationship between KIT/PDGFRA mutations and their prognostic value in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) has generated intense attention during the past decade, despite the fact that a great deal of studies have been conducted on this subject. To provide a strong quantitative estimate of this postulated relationship, we carried out a meta-analysis which combined, compared, and...
