  • Title: [Gastroduodenal intussusception on gastric tumor].
    Author: Khaddar K, Khalfallah T, Chendoul N, Dziri C, Ben-Jilani S, Najah N.
    Journal: Ann Chir; 1994; 48(6):576-9. PubMed ID: 7847708.
    Abstract:
    Gastroduodenal intussusception is a rarely documented condition. A distinction has to be made between complete gastroduodenal intussusception (CGDI) and either prolapse of a pedunculated tumor through the pylorus or mucosal prolapse through the pylorus. CGDI usually occurs secondary to a pedunculated benign gastric tumor. More rarely the tumor is malignant. We report a case of CGDI associated with gastric adenocarcinoma. We emphasize diagnostic difficulties that can be generated by CGDI.
