Secondary changes in alimentary tract with malignant lymphomas

The results of roentgenological examination of 123 patients with malignant lymphomas are studied. Two groups of patients are singled out, those with the secondary changes in the alimentary tract conditioned by the pathological process in the ajacent organs and tissues and those with the alimentary tract injury conditioned by the generalization of the main process. Roentgenological symptoms of the secondary stomach, large and small intestine injuries are described. The secondary changes are more frequently found in patients with non-Hodgkins lymphoma than in patients with lymphogranulematosis. 4 refs.; 2 figs
