When bronchogenic carcinoma is coexisting with pulmonary tuberculosis, it is difficult to differentiate bronchogenic carcinoma from pulmonary tuberculosis radiologically. Thus, the object of this study is to define differential diagnosis of bronchogenic carcinoma by computed tomography. We analized CT scans of 27 patients with radiologic findings of pulmonary tuberculosis and mass of which twelve cases were pulmonary tuberculosis and fifteen cases were primary lung cancer. The location of parenchymal infiltration and the mass was the same in 60%(9/15) of the primary lung cancer in cases and 83%(10/12) of the pulmonary tuberculosis cases. The common location of the mass was the both upper lobes in 92%(11/12) of the pulmonary tuberculosis cases and 53%(8/15) of the primary lung cancer cases. The common locations of the mediastinal lymphadenopathy were 4R, 2R of the pulmonary tuberculosis cases and 4R, 10R of the primary lung cancer cases. In the feature of post enhanced lymph nodes, homogenous increased density was more frequent in primary lung cancer. Measurements of the maximum thickness part of the cavity wall was not a reliable indication of malignancy.

In the intestinal perforation during hydrostatic reduction for intussusception, the diluted isotonic Gastrografin may prevent body fluid shifting to peritoneal space, and granulomatous reaction resulting in intestinal obstruction, which can be induced by Barium on the peritoneal surface. We have experienced two perforations from 563 Gastrografin reductions during the last five years. One of the perforated cases had no complication on one year follow up after ileocecectomy, but the other, who was in the state of shock before the reduction, died at 133rd day after the operation. The cause of death was aspiration during the feeding. We report the above two cases of intestinal perforation by Gastrografin reduction without evidence of fatal complication.
