The smooth muscle tumors of the small intestine are particularly interesting for the difficulty and the delay of their diagnosis. This usually happened for the poor and indefinite symptomatology and the problematic exploration of the organ. Starting up from the observation of 7 patients between 1986 and 1989 the Authors critically examined the literature about this problem to value the diagnostic opportunities of the principal clinical exams, suggesting as resolutive investigation, if indicated, the angiographic selective study of the visceral abdominal arteries.
小肠平滑肌瘤因其诊断困难和延迟而特别引人关注。这通常是由于症状不典型且不明确以及对该器官的检查存在问题所致。作者从1986年至1989年间对7例患者的观察出发，批判性地审视了关于此问题的文献，以评估主要临床检查的诊断机会，并建议在有指征时，将腹部内脏动脉的选择性血管造影研究作为决定性检查。
