Gastrointestinal lymphatic return obstruction

Introduction

Introduction Gastrointestinal lymphatic drainage is blocked: one of the symptoms of digestive tract tumors, cancer can compress and block lymphatic vessels, causing obstruction of gastrointestinal lymphatic drainage. Intestinal tumors occur in benign and malignant tumors of the small and large intestine. In small bowel tumors, malignant tumors are more than benign tumors. Benign tumors are more common with leiomyomas, lipomas and adenomas. Hemangiomas are rare, while neurofibromas, fibroids, fibroids, etc. are more rare. Malignant tumors include malignant lymphoma, adenocarcinoma, and leiomyosarcoma. More often. Tumors can occur in any part of the small intestine, where adenomas and carcinoids are more common in the duodenum, and other tumors are more common in the ileum and jejunum. Most of the tumors are single, but they can also be multiple. The multiple lesions of malignant tumors are often caused by the transfer of primary intestinal lesions.

Diagnosis of gastrointestinal lymphatic drainage obstruction: Digestive tract excretion test by radionuclide-labeled macromolecular substance, or 1-antitrypsin test can confirm the diagnosis. Lymph node biopsy: assist in diagnosis under direct vision, observe the shape of the lymph nodes, the upper and lower edges and the distance from the anal margin, and take the tumor tissue for pathological biopsy to determine the nature of the mass and its differentiation, which is a better method.

Diagnosis

Differential diagnosis

Differential diagnosis of gastrointestinal lymphatic drainage:

It should be differentiated from gastrointestinal lymphatic drainage caused by other causes or pathways.

Colonoscopy can clearly diagnose the specific location of the primary lesion, and can go to the pathological biopsy to determine the nature of the tumor, which is of great significance for the diagnosis of primary gastrointestinal disease.
