Title: [Distal Ileal Lymphoma Presenting Ileocecal Intussusception with Spontaneous Reduction]. Author: Jang HY, Lee JY, Kim SH, Pak MG, Lee JH. Journal: Korean J Gastroenterol; 2019 Nov 25; 74(5):291-294. PubMed ID: 31765557. Abstract: Intussusception is a rare disease in adults. A demonstrable etiology is found in approximately 85% of all cases, and approximately 40% of them are caused by malignant tumors. A 65-year-old patient visited the outpatient department with mild abdominal pain without other symptoms. The initial laboratory test and simple X-ray showed normal findings. CT revealed intussusception in the ileocecal area. The initial colonoscopic biopsy revealed atypical cells. Follow up colonoscopy showed spontaneous reduction of the intussusception. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma was suspected in the second colonoscopic biopsy. An elective operation was performed. This case reports a case of a spontaneous reduction of adult intussusception with a brief review of literature.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
