| pubmed-article:6440231 | pubmed:abstractText | Forty-four patients with malignant disease of the stomach (41 carcinomas, three non-Hodgkin lymphomas) and two patients with chronic gastric ulcers were examined by computer tomography before undergoing surgery. The ulcers, the non-Hodgkin lymphoma and the carcinomas stages pT2 to pT4 were easily demonstrated, as well as 66% of carcinomas in stage pT1. In addition to the primary tumour, it was possible to recognise lymph node and organ metastases. Two of the 46 patients were not submitted for surgery because of extensive metastases. | lld:pubmed |
