The correct diagnosis of GISTs is important for therapeutic reasons of imatinib. Recently, DOG-1 has been introduced as an important diagnostic marker with high sensitivity and specificity.

Immunohistochemistry showed negative for c-kit and positive for DOG-1, the conclusion is a GIST. Immunohistochemistry examinations are important to make defenitive diagnosis for GIST.  C-kit-negative GIST sare still rare, but defenitive diagnosis must be made because related to target therapy. DOG 1 has been proven in 89% of c-kit-negative GIST and claimed more sensitive and spesific.Keywords: GIST, c-kit, DOG-1, ICC, paraovary
