[Multilocular tumors of small intestine (author's transl)].

Tumors of small intestine can be recognized in time and evaluated histologically by means of roentgenographic and endoscopical-bioptic methods, respectively. Among radiologic techniques, the double contrast examination of the small intestine has especially high diagnostic value. On the other hand, selective angiography reveals bleeding of accompanying small intestinal tumors. Out of 23 patients with these tumors -- diagnosed in the Medical Department of the Erlangen University from 1968 to July 1974 -- there was one case with multilocular occurrence; the diagnostic efficiency of double contrast technique proved to be particularly suitable in this patient.
