Pediatric ileoileal intussusception with a lipoma lead point: a case report
نویسندگان
چکیده
Intussusception is a common cause of mechanical bowel obstruction among children, with older children being more likely to have a pathological lead point. Intestinal neoplasms are rare and small intestinal lipomas are even less common. Herein we describe a case of a 7-year-old boy with ileoileal intussusception, with an ileal lipoma as the pathological lead point. Computed tomography was useful pre-operatively for revealing intussusception due to lipoma as the pathologic lead point.

The most common causes of small bowel intussusception are benign, usually hamartoma...
