“…Intussusceptions are believed to be caused by abnormal motility patterns because of intestinal neoplasia, foreign bodies, previous resection and anastomosis, parasitism, sudden dietary changes, enteritis, recent general anaesthesia or gastroduodenal ulcers (Haddad et al, 2021; Matsuda et al, 2013). Idiopathic intussusceptions have also been described in horses (Sasani et al, 2013). Duodenoduodenal intussusceptions are extremely rare in humans (Yalamarthi & Smith, 2005) and, to the authors' best knowledge, have so far not been described in horses.…”

Summary A 16‐year‐old German Warmblood mare was presented with an acute history of abdominal pain that failed to respond to medical treatment. Diagnostic evaluations including transabdominal and transrectal ultrasound and palpation were suggestive of a small‐intestinal intussusception. Exploratory laparotomy revealed a duodenoduodenal intussusception of the proximal and middle third of the duodenum. The horse was subjected to euthanasia due to the poor prognosis. The post‐mortem examination showed the intussusception to be associated with a pseudodiverticulum orally to the intussusception and duodenal muscular hypertrophy.
