Abstract
The patient had suffered from recurrent abdominal pain for 1 year. The pain, central and in the right iliac fossa, had been worse for 1 week, requiring daily attention from the family doctor. On admission to the hospital, clinical examination revealed a long mass lying transversely in the upper abdomen. A contrast enema confirmed the diagnosis of intussusception (Figure 66.1). The apex reached the splenic flexure.
