    British Journal of Surgery, 1996
    Co-Authors: K Papakyriacou, N Nicolaou, P Symeonides
    Abstract:

    Wandering spleen is a rare Emergency Condition1,2 in which the spleen is characterized by a long vascular pedicle, displacement from its normal position and quite often devoid of its peritoneal ligaments. It is usually asymptomatic or may present with a shifting mass in the abdomen with abdominal heaviness, vague gastrointestinal disturbance and sometimes with hypersplenism or as an Emergency Condition due to torsion3.

  • adult ileal intussusception an unusual Emergency Condition
    Advances in Therapy, 2006
    Co-Authors: Ahmet Karamercan, Osman Kurukahvecioglu, Utku T Yilmaz, Gulbin Aygencel, Bulent Aytac, Mustafa Sare
    Abstract:

    Adult intussusception occurs infrequently and differs from the childhood Condition in its presentation, cause, and treatment. Nonspecific symptoms can delay diagnosis; most cases are diagnosed at Emergency laparotomy. Increased use of computed tomographic scanning to evaluate patients with abdominal pain can enhance reliable preoperative diagnosis. Treatment entails simple bowel resection in most cases. Reduction is controversial, especially in cases of colonic intussusception. This report describes the diagnosis and management of a case of adult ileal intussusception caused by an inflammatory fibroid polyp—a rare lesion of the gastrointestinal tract.
