[Serology of toxoplasmosis in patients with lymphogranulomatosis]

The technical progress in the development of the fiber coloscopy gives the possibility to inspect the whole large intestine including the terminal ileum. The essential contribution of the coloscopy consists in the early diagnosis of the carcinoma of the large intestine. The malignant change of the polyp may be proved or excluded only after total polypectomy. In our clinical material consisting of 250 patients in 44% of the cases the total coloscopy confirmed the radiological suspicion. In 38% of the cases the pathological changes of the large intestine could be excluded, and a laparotomy was unnecessary. In 18% another severe finding of the large intestine was established. In haemorrhage of the large intestine of unclear genesis the coloscopy made possible the final recognition of the source of haemorrhage in 92% of the cases. In patients with colitis we established coloscopically larger changes than could be assumed on the basis of the barium enema. The total coloscopy given a highest possible certainty in the diagnostics of the large intestine.
