On the causes of diagnostic errors in the detection of gastrointestinal cancers
Qualified medical care of the population to a great extent depends on the quality of diagnostic work at the polyclinic stage.
To study the causes of delayed diagnosis of gastrointestinal tumors we analyzed case histories of 2120 patients treated at the gastroenterology department during three years. Gastric tumors of various localizations were revealed in 32 patients, in 9 patients - tumors of large intestine. The average age of the patients was 56 years.
