Summary

Intraluminal growth of yeast-like fungi in the stomach was demonstrated in 30 cases by gastro-photography. The roentgenographic and endo-scopic findings in these cases are compared and differential diagnostic possibilities discussed. The gastrophotographic appearance of yeast-like fungi is characteristic and allows diagnosis even before the growth is massive and causes symptom. They may anyhow be important, as other leisons may be covered or mimicked by fungi both on roentgen examination and at gastrophotography.
