title: [Gastrointestinal tract in diseases of the adrenal cortex].
abstract: Clinico-roentgenological study of the gastrointestinal tract was carried out in 86 patients with diseases of the adrenal cortex. A hyperplastic relief of the gastric mucosa was revealed in the adreno-genital syndrome, Itsenko-Cushing's disease, androsteroma and glucosteroma; the relief was hypoplastic in Addison's disease. Ulcerative lesions found in Addison's disease were erosive and associated with the corticosteroid therapy instituted. Functional changes in small intestine in Itsenko--Cushing's disease, glucosteroma and Addison's disease were chiefly hypomotor-hypotonic in character, and in the adreno-genital syndrome and androsteromas--hypermotor-normotonic. Electrogastrography revealed different disturbances in the rhythm and amplitude of oscillations in the gastric biopotentials pointing to the changes in the vegetative innervation.
