    Calcified primary tumors of the gastrointestinal tract (1977)
    Springer
    Abdominal imaging 2 (1977), S. 331-339 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-0509
    Keywords: Abdomen, calcification ; Esophagus, leiomyoma ; Intestine, neoplasms, calcification ; Pancreas, neoplasms, calcification ; Liver, neoplasms, calcification

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract The dominant pattern and location of calcifications occurring within 23 primary gastrointestinal tumors have been analysed and correlated with the data from the literature. The provided guidelines for radiologic diagnosis of such calcified tumors include: (1) a retrocardiac mass containing amorphous calcifications is typical of leiomyoma of the esophagus; (2) calcific deposits similar to that in uterine fibroids may be the feature of gastric leiomyoma or intestinal leiomyosarcoma; (3) sand-like deposits within the wall of the stomach or colon are characteristic of a mucinous adenocarcinoma; (4) clusters of phleboliths in the gastrointestinal wall suggest a hemangioma particularly if recurrent intestinal bleeding and cutaneous hemangiomas are associated; (5) sunburst type of calcification in the pancreas indicates a cystadenoma or cystadenocarcinoma of that organ; and (6) aggregates of granular calcifications in the liver are diagnostic for metastatic adenocarcinoma of the colon but may rarely be seen in a primary malignancy of the liver.

    Ischemic disease of the small bowel and colon associated with oral contraceptives (1977)
    Springer
    Abdominal imaging 2 (1977), S. 221-228 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-0509
    Keywords: Contraceptive pills, complication ; Colitis, ischemic ; Intestine, blood supply ; Small bowel, ischemia

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract The widespread use of hormonal contraceptive pills by young women has caused a documented increase in thromboembolic disorders. This article describes yet another of the drug-induced complications namely, the development of ischemic bowel disease in seven cases. The ischemic changes which involved the small intestine in three and the colon in four patients became reversible after conservative management and discontinuance of oral contraceptive agents. The importance of clinical and radiologic consideration of ischemic bowel disease in young females receiving birth control pills is emphasized.

    Iatrogenic intubation injuries of the upper gastrointestinal tract in adults (1980)
    Springer
    Abdominal imaging 5 (1980), S. 1-10 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-0509
    Keywords: Esophagus, perforation ; Gastrointestinal intubation, complications ; Stomach, injury
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract Perforation of the hypopharynx, esophagus, and stomach complicated the insertion of flexible tubes in 11 adults. Nasogastric suction tubes were responsible for 5 instances of gastric perforation. Palliative intubation of obstructive carcinomas of the distal esophagus resulted in delayed perforation of the esophagus and stomach in 2 cases. The use of a Linton tube for decompression of bleeding varices caused esophageal rupture in 1 patient whereas 2 others developed pharyngoesophageal perforation due to misplaced endotracheal tubes. The remaining 1 case demonstrated penetration of a chest tube into the esophageal lumen. The radiographic features and mechanisms of these iatrogenic injuries are described and the pertinent literature is reviewed.

    Pneumatosis coli in Crohn's disease (1974)
    Springer
    Digestive diseases and sciences 19 (1974), S. 315-323 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-2568

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract Two cases of extensive pneumatosis of the colon associated with Crohn's disease are reported. This unusual complication most likely resulted from intramural dissection of bowel gas due to altered mucosal integrity and increased intraluminal pressure. The clinical and radiographic features of pneumatosis coli have been reviewed with emphasis on differentiation of the underlying gastrointestinal diseases. The similarity of histopathologic findings of Crohn's disease and pneumatosis intestinalis is also mentioned.

    Diagnosis and management of intraluminal duodenal diverticulum (1983)
    Springer
    Digestive diseases and sciences 28 (1983), S. 411-416 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-2568
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract The descending part of duodenum is the principal site for an intraluminally projecting mucosal pouch or diverticulum, but this unusual lesion may also occur elsewhere in the upper gastrointestinal tract. We report three patients in whom a large intraluminal duodenal diverticulum (IDD) was diagnosed radiographically at the ages of 15, 27, and 68 years, respectively. Fiberoptic duodenoscopy was performed in the two symptomatic cases for the removal of impacted food from IDD or dilatation of its outflow aperture. Guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of IDD are provided based on our experience and review of the pertinent literature.

    Esophageal varices (1972)

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract The value of propantheline bromide and atropine sulfate in the diagnosis of esophageal varices when conventional esophagography did not show definitive findings was assessed. Twenty patients and 20 control subjects were examined prior to and shortly after these anticholinergic drugs were administered. Visualization of varices was improved remarkably in all 15 patients in whom varices were confirmed on subsequent esophagoscopy. The pharmacoradiologic basis for this method and its significance in the accurate diagnosis of esophageal varices are discussed.
