A study of four cases

  • Clinical Medicine: Diseases Of Digestion
  • Published:
The American Journal of Digestive Diseases

Summary

1. The diagnostic difficulties encountered in four proven cases of lymphosarcoma of the stomach are reviewed.

2. The roentgen examination of the stomach may show no evidence of abnormality until late in the course of the disease inasmuch as the mucosa may not beinvolved prior to that time.

3. Two cases of lymphosarcoma are added to the literature.

4. In dealing with an obscure diagnostic problem involving the stomach, the rare possibility of sarcoma and its different pathological progress from that found in carcinoma should be considered.
