Abstract:

Malignant lesion is usually a segment involvement, & shows irregularly thickened, hypoechoic & aperistaltic wall with loss of normal layering pattern. It is usually a solitary stricture & has eccentric irregular luminal narrowing. It shows loss of normal gut signature. Enlargement of the involved segment is seen. Shouldering effect at the ends of stricture is most common feature. Enlarged lymphnodes & fluid collection around may be seen. Primary arising from wall itself & secondary are invasion from peri-Ampullary malignancy or distant metastasis. Ultrasonography is an effective non-invasive method for diagnosing primary or metastatic gastro-intestinal tract neoplastic lesions. Some extra efforts taken during all ultrasonography examinations can help to diagnose primarily hitherto unsuspected benign & malignant gastro-intestinal tract neoplastic lesions. Sincerely ultrasonography should be the investigation of choice for diagnosing various benign & malignant gastrointestinal tract neoplastic lesions.
