  • Title: Small bowel intussusception after blunt abdominal trauma in a 6-year-old boy: case report and review of 6 cases reported in the literature.
    Author: Erichsen D, Sellström H, Andersson H.
    Journal: J Pediatr Surg; 2006 Nov; 41(11):1930-2. PubMed ID: 17101374.
    Abstract:
    Although intussusception is a well-known cause of acute abdomen in the pediatric population, traumatic intussusception is exceedingly rare and has been reported previously only 6 times in a preadolescent child. We present a case of ileoileal intussusception in a previously healthy 6-year-old boy after blunt trauma to the abdomen and review the English language literature on the subject.
