A child with colo-colonic intussusception due to a large colonic polyp: Case report and literature review
Abstract
Colo-colonic intussusception (CI) due to a colonic polyp is a rarely reported cause of intestinal obstruction in school-aged children. Hydrostatic reduction (HR) and endoscopic polypectomy are minimally invasive and technically feasible for treating CI. We report a case of CI and review the literature, focusing on the diagnosis and treatment.
Key words: Children, colo-colonic intussusception, colonic polyp, intestinal obstruction
