| Popis: | Ultrasonography (US) of the fasting stomach in a patient suffering from secondary amyloidosis with a confirmed diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis revealed thickening of the wall, as well as retention of secretions and delayed emptying of contents despite no administration of an anticholinergic agent such as butylscopolamine (Buscopan, Schering Pharmaceutical Co.). The US findings in the stomach of a patient with secondary amyloidosis are as non-specific as those of barium meal radiography. |
