A PROSPECTIVE STUDY OF ABDOMINAL MALIGNANCIES PRESENTING AS ABDOMINAL EMERGENCIES IN A TERTIARY CARE HOSPITAL

Abstract

Background:  This study shows the various malignancies that we have encountered in the study period, their pattern of distribution, modes of presentation, and methods of management. The unusual aspect of this study is the emphasis on emergency surgery, the 
problems that were encountered by the general surgeons, when we saw a malignancy as the cause and how we managed them.
