摘要
The term intussusception refers to a spontaneous invagination of a portion of the intestine into another bowel loop. Its incidence is higher in children, but in adults it causes 1% to 5% of intestinal obstructions. The diagnosis of intussusception in the adult is difficult due to the variability of the symptoms. The condition may be chronic, intermittent, or acute. Surgical intervention is necessary in all cases and in up to 90% of cases an organic lesion inside the invaginated part of the bowel is found to be the lead point. The laparoscopic approach offers both a diagnostic and therapeutic option. Laparoscopy may be used as the final diagnostic or therapeutic tool for intussusception in the adult.
