Zusammenfassung:Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are uncommon mesenchymal neoplasms primarily found in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. While they typically occur in older adults, GISTs can manifest in individuals of any age. This publication paper presents a case study of a rare occurrence: a spontaneously ruptured duodenal GIST in a young female. Through an in-depth review of the literature, we aim to provide insights into the clinical presentation, diagnostic challenges, management strategies, and long-term outcomes associated with this unique clinical scenario.
