            Primary gastrointestinal (GI) mesenchymal neoplasms in the dog include histologically similar entities such as leiomyomas, leiomyosarcomas, and gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs)...Canine GISTs usually occur in older dogs, most commonly in the small intestine and colon...The clinical behavior of canine GISTs ranges from benign to malignant with metastases to the liver, spleen, mesentery, or mesenteric lymph nodes. (Gillespie et al, 2011)
