Abstract
Conclusion: The results of our study have shown that radiation enteritis is not a single disease entity. More than one-half of the patients had more than one GI diagnosis contributing to their symptoms. After pelvic RT, specific GI symptoms were not a reliable measure of the underlying diagnoses, and the evaluation of new GI symptoms is worthwhile. An algorithm for this purpose is proposed.
