clinical presentations and surgical approach of acute Intussusception caused by peutz jeghers syndrome in adults
Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery, 2011Co-Authors: Hong Wang, Ting Luo, Wen-qu Liu, Yan Huang, Xiu-jie WangAbstract:Introduction Peutz–Jeghers syndrome is a rare autosomal dominantly inherited disease characterized by mucocutaneous pigmentations and gastrointestinal polyps. The polyps are located predominantly in the small intestine and usually cause Intussusceptions. Adult Intussusception caused by Peutz–Jeghers syndrome occurs very rarely. The purpose of this study was to analyze the clinical characteristics, preoperative diagnosis, and surgical management of Peutz–Jeghers syndrome associated with acute Intussusception in adult patients.

recurrent adult jejuno jejunal Intussusception due to inflammatory fibroid polyp vanek s tumour a case report
Diagnostic Pathology, 2014Co-Authors: Kenneth M Joyce, Peadar S. Waters, Ronan Waldron, Zolt S Orosz, Tamas Nemeth, Iqbal Z Khan, Kevin BarryAbstract:Background: Adult Intussusception is a rare but challenging condition. Preoperative diagnosis is frequently missed or delayed because of nonspecific or sub-acute symptoms. Case presentation: We present the case of a sixty-two year old gentleman who initially presented with pseudo-obstruction. Computerised tomography displayed a jejuno-jejunal Intussusception, which was treated by primary laparoscopic reduction. The patient re-presented with acute small bowel obstruction two weeks later. He underwent a laparotomy showing recurrent Intussusception and required a small bowel resection with primary anastomosis. Histological examination of the specimen revealed that the Intussusception lead point was due to an inflammatory fibroid polyp (Vanek’s tumour) causing double invagination. Conclusions: Adult Intussusception presents with a variety of acute, intermittent, and chronic symptoms, thus making its preoperative diagnosis difficult. Although computed tomography is useful in confirming an anatomical abnormality, final diagnosis requires histopathological analysis. Vanek’s tumours arising within the small bowel rarely present with obstruction or Intussusception. The optimal surgical management of adult small bowel Intussusception varies between reduction and resection. Reduction can be attempted in small bowel Intussusceptions provided that the segment involved is viable and malignancy is not suspected.
