Intussusception of the Colon: Rare Case of Bowel Obstruction
Received Date: May 04, 2023 / Published Date: May 30, 2023
Abstract
An intussusception happens when a portion of the intestine folds over like a glove and enters the intestinal segment immediately downstream. As a result of this “telescoping”, the digestive tunics that form the wall of the gastrointestinal tract become nested, forming an intussusception loop that has a head and a neck. Its diagnosis is not simple and should be suspected in the absence of a particular background or with recurrent spontaneously resolving occlusive episodes.
