title: Extravasation of contrast material from vascular ectasia of the cecum detected with 99mTc-pertechnetate.
abstract: A case of vascular ectasia of the cecum is presented. The isotopic pattern did not differ from that of Meckel's diverticulum. The authors suggest that studies with 99mTc may be helpful in screening for areas of pathology in cases of lower gastrointestinal bleeding.
