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...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to assess the frequency of clinical features and pathological lead points in recurrent intussusception, with a special focus on the risk factors that lead to recurrent intussusception. DESIGN This is a retrospective cohort study. A 5-year retrospective study was performed between January 2012 and July 2016 in the Children's Hospital of Soochow University, S...

UNLABELLED Adult intussusception is rare. The author is reporting a case of adult intussusception in a 60-year-old female inside of incisional hernia sac, acting as a lead point. The presentation was subacute intestinal obstruction. Ultrasonography was useful adjunct in diagnosis. The site for intussusception was jejunum. Intussusception was seen protruding into hernial sac with adhesions of gu...

We investigated the adenoviral etiology and seasonal epidemic trends in intussusception and each adenoviral subgroup. Also we confirmed whether we can use the adenovirus data of Acute Infectious Agents Laboratory Surveillance Report (AIALSR) as an epidemic predictor of intussusception. Patients with intussusception (n = 126), < 5 years old, were enrolled and matched by age and sex with controls...

Early surgical correction of an acute intestinal intussusception in childhood usually results in a satisfactory recovery, but when gangrene of the constricted bowel has occurred the mortality rate is very high. Only three recoveries were reported by Ladd and Gross (1941) in 18 cases in which a primary anastomosis was carried out to deal with this complication. A Mikulicz double enterostomy oper...

BACKGROUND Intussusception is the most common cause of intestinal obstruction in infants and children. To date, no study has evaluated the ability of physicians to predict the likelihood of intussusception. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine the ability of pediatric physicians to predict intussusception in patients being evaluated for intussusception and to investigate whether certain cl...

ménétrier's disease is a rare cause of hypertrophic gastropathy that is usually confined to the gastric body and fundus. it is characterized by giant rugae, hypoalbuminemia, and foveolar hyperplasia. here we report the case of a 26-year-old woman who presented with epigastric pain, postparandial nausea-vomiting, and weight loss. paraclinic evaluation revealed hypoalbuminemia and hypochromic mic...

Appendiceal intussusception is an uncommon form of intussusception. Most of the literature regarding appendiceal intussusception discusses the colonoscopic diagnosis or surgical treatment of the condition. Sonographic findings have rarely been described. We present a case of preoperative sonographic diagnosis of appendiceal intussusception.

Intussusception is the most common cause of intestinal obstraction in children aged 3 months to 6 years. Complete understanding of its clinical and radiographic manifestations can play a major role in the early diagnosis and treatment and prevents its complications. In this study plain abdominal X-rays of 51 patients with intussusception were evaluated. Suggestive radiographic signs of the dise...
