A Child’s Acute Intestinal Intussusception and Literature Review

Acute intestinal intussusception remains a surgical emergency in infants and young children aged 3 months to 3 years. It results from the incarceration of the upstream intestinal segment in the downstream segment. In the majority of cases it is idiopathic, but can be secondary to certain pathologies...
