PURPOSE: To evaluate the use of sonography in the assessment of compressibility of the affected bowel in the differential diagnosis of gastrointestinal (GI) lymphoma.
METHODS: Thirty-two cases of advanced gastric cancer, 28 cases of advanced colon cancer, 7 cases of gastric lymphoma, and 6 cases of colon lymphoma were included in the study. To assess the compressibility of the affected bowel, a transducer was used to exert external compression. Deformation of the tumor and its lumen by compression was considered to indicate positive compressibility.
RESULTS: Compressibility was absent in advanced gastric and colon cancer but was present in 11/13 (85%) cases of GI lymphoma. In the diagnosis of GI lymphoma, compressibility showed 85% (11/13) sensitivity, 97% (58/60) specificity, and 95% (69/73) overall accuracy.
CONCLUSION: Compressibility of the affected bowel is a useful clue in the diagnosis of GI lymphoma.
