Symptoms of gastrointestinal stromal tumor include dysphagia, Gastrointestinal hemorrhage, Metastases, Intestinal obstruction, and vague abdominal pain.
History and Symptoms
- dysphagia
- Gastrointestinal hemorrhage

- Often, there is a history of vague abdominal pain or discomfort, and the tumor has become rather large by time the diagnosis is made.
