  • Title: Ileo-ileal intussusception caused by diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the ileum.
    Author: Xu XQ, Hong T, Li BL, Liu W.
    Journal: World J Gastroenterol; 2013 Dec 07; 19(45):8449-52. PubMed ID: 24363540.
    Abstract:
    The occurrence of adult intussusception from small intestinal lymphoma is quite rare. We present an 82-year-old man with a two-month history of intermittent abdominal pain, nausea and fatigue. Clinical symptoms included moderate abdominal tenderness in the right lower abdomen. Computed tomography scan of the abdomen revealed a mass in the terminal ileum with the sign of "bowel within bowel" which was suspicious of ileo-ileum intussusception. The patient underwent laparoscopic segmental ileal resection. Pathologic evaluation revealed a diffuse large B cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the ileum. The postoperative course was uneventful.
