The analysis of 102 observations indicated the clinico-roentgenological features of cancer of the greater curvature of the stomach, thus enabling the possibilities of a roentgenological method of examination to be ascertained in the complex of methods for examining patients with the pathology involved. It was noted that in cancer of the larger curvature of the stomach the character of the lesion is not infrequently masked by the symptoms observed in ulcerous disease, chronic gastritis or Menetrie disease. Accessory methods of roentgenodiagnosis: pneumogastrography, double and triple contrasting technic contribute to pinpointing the true character of the process. Application of the mentioned technics allowed the precise diagnosis to be established in 87.2% of cases. When using fibrogastroscopy the correct diagnosis was made in 86.5% of patients. Use of the complex examination allowed the precise preoperative diagnosis in 92.1%. Some problems of the differential diagnosis between cancer of the larger curvature of the stomach and ulcerous gastric disease are discussed.
