[Indications for roentgenologic diagnosis of the colon in gynecology].
X-ray barium-enema examination of the colon recently is an established method in gynecology performed as differential or spreading diagnosis. In 276 patients the results of 291 barium-enema examinations have been analysed retrospectively. The radiographic findings correlate 279 times with the intraoperative and histologic diagnoses (165 correct nonpathologic and 114 correct pathologic). On the basis of the obtained correct and false diagnoses, common indications for using irrigoscopy in gynecology have been suggested. In this context, abdominal and/or vaginal sonography as well as sigmoidoscopy are suitable methods which should be applicated compulsorily before radiologic examination of the colon in women suffering from gynecologic diseases.
