title: [Results of sonographic Examination of Some Tumours and Tumorous Affections of Soft Tissues of the Musculoskeletal Apparatus.].
abstract: On the basis of a selected group of eight patients the authors compare sonographic, clinical, peroperative and histological findings of tumours and tumorous affections of benign nature of soft tissues of the musculoskeletal apparatus. For a major contribution the authors consider the fact that it is a non-invasive graphic method convenient for the patient by which location and size of the tumour can be determined, as well as the relation of the mass to surrounding structures and to a certain extent also the consistency of the mass on the basis of the so-called A mode. However, the significance of sonography should not be overstimated. It is a com plementary method to other examinations. Mainly it is not able to substitute the resulting histological examination. Key words: sonography, non-invasive graphic method, correlation of sonographic, clinical, per-operative and histological findings.
