  • Title: Preoperative angiographic diagnosis of small bowel leiomyomas.
    Author: Stothert JC, Riaz A, Joyce PF, Kaminski DL.
    Journal: Arch Surg; 1978 May; 113(5):643-5. PubMed ID: 646627.
    Abstract:
    Two patients with gastrointestinal (GI) tract bleeding underwent preoperative selective visceral arteriography that demonstrated small-bowel tumors compatible with leiomyoma. A review of the material indicates that 42% of patients with small-bowel leiomyomas also have GI tract bleeding. Arteriography is valuable in obtaining a preoperative diagnosis.
