“…The cysts may be of all sizes, up to 5 cm. in diameter, occurring singly or in clusters, lying between the muscularis mucosae and the inner circular muscle of the colon (Burn and Jones, 1961), though they may project on to the serosal surface and involve the great omentum. The masses may narrow the colon (Fig.…”

“…The masses may narrow the colon (Fig. 1), cause obstruction (Griffiths, 1955 ;Witkowski et al, 1955), and be the precipitating cause of a volvulus (Burn and Jones, 1961), and they may be associated with pneumoperitoneum (Somerville, 1951).…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
