title: [Value and limits of echography and abdominal lymphography in malignant lymphomas].
abstract: Diagnostic results obtained by echography and lymphography in the study of abdominal lymphoglandular involvement in patients with lymphomas are compared. The data indicate that while lymphography is more revealing, the two examinations should be used together in staging. Echography, on the other hand, should be used for long-term surveillance, once the lymphographic contrast medium has been absorbed.
