Abstract:Acute intestinal intussusception in adults is a rare condition, often due to a rarely benign malignant lesion. The clinic is subtle and therefore difficult. Imaging is important for diagnosis and determination of the aetiology. Intestinal intussusception on lipoma is exceptional. We report a case of bowel obstruction upstream of a strangulated ileo-caecal intussusception on lipoma.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
