Clinical presentation:
Adult female with past treatment for carcinoma of ovary.

There is an abnormal pattern to the coating of jejunum ileum and ascending colon in pelvis and right sub-hepatic region. There are intermittent strictures with irregular mucosal thickening. Bowel separation implies some thickening of the walls of adjacent loops of bowel. In one view, some of the narrowing might be ascribed to peristalsis, but the general pattern is grossly abnormal. The calcific ring densities of two incidental gall-stones are noted.
