About Gastrointestinal Stroma

Gastrointestinal Stroma, also known as Inflammatory Bowel Disease, is a chronic autoimmune condition that affects the digestive system. It causes inflammation and swelling in the intestine, leading to symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, constipation, and blood in the stool. Stromal cells are a type of immune cell that play a crucial role in protecting the gut from harmful bacteria and viruses. However, in cases of Inflammatory Bowel Disease, the body's immune response causes the growth and activation of these cells, leading to inflammation and tissue damage in the gut. Treatment typically involves managing symptoms with medications to reduce inflammation, and dietary changes to reduce the number of trigger foods. In severe cases, surgery may be necessary to remove damaged tissue and improve digestive function.

Major Symptoms of Gastrointestinal Stroma

Gastrointestinal Stroma (GIS) is a condition characterized by inflammation and swelling of the stomach lining. Some of the major symptoms of GIS include abdominal pain and discomfort, a feeling of bloating or fullness in the abdomen, nausea or vomiting, loss of appetite, and a weak or racing heartbeat. In severe cases, GIS may cause peritonitis, which is an infection of the peritoneal cavity.
