Intussusception is the most common cause of intestinal obstruction in children younger than 2 years. Despite successful reduction, recurrence of intussusception may occur. Recurrence after intestinal resection rarely occurs. We present a case of recurrent intussusception in a patient with a history of ileocecectomy for ileocolic intussusception. The patient was diagnosed with ileocolic intussusception with peritonitis at the age of 5 months, which was managed with ileocecectomy. At 9 months postoperatively, the patient presented with hematochezia. Ultrasound imaging showed ileocolic intussusception; thus, we performed air reduction, which resulted in successful outcomes. No recurrence has occurred at three years postoperatively.
