Core Tip The doubling time (DT) differed according to the type of submucosal tumors (SMTs), and gastrointestinal submucosal tumors (GISTs) were confirmed to have a significantly shorter doubling time than the other types of tumors. DT was 17.2 mo for GIST, as compared with 231.2 for leiomyoma, 104.7 for schwannoma. DT of GIST was significantly shorter than that of leiomyoma plus schwannoma (P < 0.05), and DT of high-risk GIST (3.9 mo) was significantly shorter than that of extremely low-risk plus low-risk GIST (24.0 mo) (P < 0.05). Even small SMTs less than 2 cm in diameter should initially be followed up within at least 6 mo after detection.
