Intussusception and Other Intestinal Irritation Connected with Hydrocephalus

Chronic anisakidosis presenting with intestinal intussusception.

OBJECTIVE Anisakidosis is a parasitic infection caused by the ingestion of row or uncooked fish, containing larval nematodes from the Anisakidae family. Intestinal anisakidosis represents about 4% of all cases, the majority being localized in the small bowel, with rare colonic involvement. Here we present an infrequent case of chronic anisakidosis, presenting with intestinal intussusception. ...

Adult Ileo-Ileal Intussusception Caused by Intestinal Lipoma

Mechanisms of Intestinal Intussusception Formation

Intussusceptions occur primarily in dogs younger than 1 year of age and are most commonly found at the ileocecocolic junction. Intussusceptions may, however, occur at other locations within the gastrointestinal tract, including the gastroesophageal junction and pylorogastric region. Gastroesophageal and pylorogastric intussusceptions result in more acute, severe clinical signs than do intussusc...

Ileocolic intestinal intussusception in a dog with leptospirosis.

Leptospirosis is a zoonotic infection causing clinical and subclinical disease in dogs, humans, and other mammalian species. Although more than 200 different Leptospira interrogans serovars have been identified (11), the serovars most commonly isolated from dogs with clinical leptospirosis in Southern Germany are L. grippothyphosa and L. saxkoebing (3). However, vaccines currently available in ...

Intestinal schistosomiasis associated with intussusception: a case report.

We report a case of intestinal schistosomiasis associated with iliocaecal intussusception resulting from obstructions of the terminal part of the ileum by schistosome egg-induced fibrosis. A 7-year-old boy presented with the history of abdominal pain and difficulties in passing stool for two months. Ultrasound examination revealed doughnut signs characterized with multiple concentric rings at t...
