  • Title: Ileocolic invagination in adult due to caecal carcinoma.
    Author: Erbil Y, Eminoğlu L, Caliş A, Berber E.
    Journal: Acta Chir Belg; 1997 Aug; 97(4):190-1. PubMed ID: 9381902.
    Abstract:
    In adult invagination, the leading point is usually an organic lesion. It is mostly a benign lesion in enteric, ileocolic and ileocaecal invaginations, however in colocolic invaginations the leading point is often malign. In our patient we diagnosed an ileocolic invagination due to a caecal tumour, evidenced by CT (Computerized tomography) and colonoscopy. Right hemicolectomy and ileotransversostomy were performed.
