INTRODUCTION Peutz-Jegher's syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant disorder that typically manifests itself as recurrent colicky abdominal pain and blood loss in stools. In adults, it is only rarely accompanied by frank intussusception and intestinal obstruction. We encountered an adult Asian Indian male who presented with an intestinal obstruction due to jejunoileal intussusception. It was caus...

Intussusceptions as an entity is more common in children than adults whom it almost always secondary to some associated pathology. Moreover, the presentation subacute or chronic nature and all classical features of intussusceptions are rarely present together that makes diagnosis challenging. Here we presented a case ileo-ileal intussusception adult male. Obligation early diagnosis, initial man...

Abstract Lipomas are the most common non-epithelial tumours of colon. Nevertheless, symptomatic colonic lipomas a rare entity in adults. Intussusception is commonest complication submucosal and often presents with absent, non-specific or intermittent symptoms, hence diagnosis challenging. In non-emergency situations, patients undergo computed tomography scan as well endoscopic evaluation colon ...

Intussusception is a pathology of infants and young children. Its occurrence in adults very unusual. In the vast majority cases, it secondary to benign or malignant tumor. Small bowel malignancies are relatively rare, 1% - 5% tumors gastrointestinal tract. Acute intussusception, rare adults, often presents with non-specific symptoms. Contrary children, organic origin remains preponderant elderl...

BACKGROUND Intussusception is a relatively common cause of intestinal obstruction in children but a rare clinical entity in adults, representing fewer than 1% of intestinal obstructions in this patient population. Colonic lipomas are uncommon nonepithelial neoplasms that are typically sessile, asymptomatic and incidentally found during endoscopy, surgery, or autopsy. CASE PRESENTATION A 55-ye...

heterotopic pancreas is an uncommon developmental anomaly of upper gastrointestinal tract. heterotopic pancreas tissue is very rarely found in ileum. intussusception in children is usually idiopathic, but definitive aetiology can be established in 90% of adult cases. we are reporting a case of pancreatic heterotopia presenting as a lead point of ileo-ileal intussusception in a 1year 3month year...

The authors report a case of Waugh's syndrome in an adult. Waugh's syndrome is rare in adults as most of the cases present in paediatric age group. We have discussed treatment options and it is suggested that the possibility of Waugh's syndrome should always be kept in mind when a case of intussusception is being treated by either operative or non-operative method.
