Title: Prolapsing neoplasms of the terminal ileum simulating enlarged ileocecal valves. Author: Schnur MJ, Seaman WB. Journal: AJR Am J Roentgenol; 1980 Jun; 134(6):1133-6. PubMed ID: 6770620.

Five cases are described and illustrated, four lipomas and one carcinoid.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
