Abstract

The authors evaluated ultlrasonographic findings of surgically or pathologically proven anterior abdominalwall lesion in 17 cases. The results were follows; 1. Ultrasonography is an accurate, convenient and noninvasive method to detect and determine the extent of anterior abdominal wall lesion. 2. Peritoneal fascia interface is animportant landmark in differenciation between intraperitoneal and abdominal wall lesion. 3. Sonographic differenciation of abscess and hematoma from tumor was impossible.
