Dr. Pranav B. Jadhav, Dr. Sanjay Raut
Abstract :
Intussusception is one of the most common causes of acute abdomen in infancy. Intussusception occurs when a portion of the digestive tract becomes telescoped into the adjacent bowel segment. This condition usually occurs in children between six months and two years of age. The vast majority of childhood cases of intussusception are ileocolic; that is, the ileum becomes telescoped into the colon. In the past, intussusception was a severe condition with high morbidity and mortality rates. Currently, prompt diagnosis and effective treatment lead to a favorable outcome in most cases. There are two options of treatment surgical and nonsurgical reduction of intussusceptions under USG guided saline reduction. In expert hands the nonsurgical treatment is successful about 85–90% cases.
