[Complex diagnosis of stomach polyps].
130 patients suffering from gastric polyps were examined; in 22 cases, malignancies were detected. According to the results of endoscopic and X-ray examination, malignant transformation of gastric polyps does not produce pathognomonic symptoms. It was found that the nature of polyps cannot be properly identified unless, at least, three or four roentgenologic and endoscopic symptoms are considered. Each procedure has proved to be of high diagnostic value. Correct diagnosis was established in 92.5% of cases following the complex application of X-ray and endoscopic methods and in 100% when it was supplemented with cytological examination. These findings suggest a complex application of the said diagnostic procedures.
