Abstract EN
We present a young adult who had an emergency laparotomy for acute small bowel obstruction.
An ileo-ileocaecal intussusception was found & reduced.
The segment of the ileum containing the leading point was resected ; examination of which revealed an adenomatous polyp harboring ectopic gastric mucosa in non Meckel’s diverticulum.
The patient had uneventful postoperative course with no further complications.
In an adult with intussusception resection of the affected segment should always be considered, even if it is viable in order not to miss an underlying pathology.
