[Capacities of transabdominal ultrasound study in the diagnosis of polyps of the stomach and colon].
The data obtained from studies of 84 patients with polyps of the stomach and colonic were used to consider the capacities of transabdominal and transrectal ultrasound studies and their diagnostic efficiency in the diagnosis of polyps of the stomach and colon. The ultrasound semiotics of polyps of the gastric and colon was described. A place of transabdominal ultrasound sonography (US) in the algorithm of radiation and endoscopic studies was established. This investigation led to the conclusion that transabdominal US, along with indirect diagnosis, permits solution of number of fundamental problems facing prior to polypectomy--these are primarily to define the nature of a detected polyp (epithelial and non-epithelial), based on an analysis of the laminar structure of the wall of an organ at the polyp base, a possible polyp malignancy and the degree of invasion into the depths of the gastric wall, as well as to detect a feeding vessel (in the CDC mode) and to predict the likelihood of possible complications. It is advisable to use transabdominal US in a complex of diagnostic techniques for polyps of the stomach and colon.
