Résumé :

The authors reviewed the radiological signs of radiotherapeutic lesions of the small intestine based on the results of 24 small intestine barium meals obtained from patients undergoing irradiation for cancer. Radiotherapeutic lesions of the small intestine are characterised by narrowing (70%), mesenteric signs (62%), mucosal abnormalities (58%) such as thickened, fixed, transversal folds, and spiky margins.
