[Radiologic patterns of the metastatic tumours of the large intestine (author's transl)].

The metastatic tumours of the large intestine are not unfrequent. In the majority of cases they are due to the direct invasion from endo or retro peritoneal tumours, especially of the stomach and the pancreas. The radiologic findings of such lesions are described, and a correlation is made with the pathologic, pathogenetic and clinical aspects.
