RÉSUMÉ
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical application of delayed repeated air enema (DRE) with sedation in pediatric intussusception. METHOD: We retrospectively assessed cases of idiopathic intussusception treated with air enema reduction at the emergency department of Beijing Children's Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2016 to August 2019. The included cases were assigned to the success or failure groups based on the outcomes of DRE with sedation. General patient information, clinical manifestations, test results, and surgical conditions were collected for comparative analysis. RESULTS: A total of 3052 cases were initially diagnosed with intussusception and underwent air enema reduction. Ultimately, 211 cases were included, with 162 in the success group and 49 in the failure group. The success rate of DRE with sedation was 76.8% (162/211), with an overall reduction success rate of 97.8% (2984/3052). Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that patients in the failure group had a significantly higher proportion of patients with age ≤1 year, bloody stools, and left-sided intussusception before DRE compared to the success group (OR = 2.3, 95%CI: 1.1â¼4.6, P = 0.023; OR = 3.4, 95%CI: 1.6â¼7.2, P = 0.002 and OR = 12.6, 95%CI: 4.6â¼34.6, P < 0.001). Multiple logistic regression analysis based on these three factors revealed that the risk of DRE failure was 10.1 times higher in cases with the left-sided intussusception before DRE. CONCLUSIONS: DRE with sedation can improve the overall enema reduction success rate for intussusception and has good feasibility and safety profiles. Left-sided intussusception before DRE is an independent risk factor for enema failure.

Background: Early presentation, high rate of successful non-operative treatment, low morbidity and mortality in childhood intussusception is common in High and Upper Middle-Income Countries but not in many Lower middle- and Low-income countries. Aim: To assess the trends in the profile, treatment modalities and outcomes of intussusception in our hospital. Materials and methods: Retrospective study over a 12-year period divided into two 6-year periods. Data entry/analysis was done using SPSS and various indices were compared between these two periods. Two-tailed t-test for two independent means was used to compare means while two-tailed Fisher exact tests were used to compare categorical variables. Results were presented as tables, means, ranges, percentages and a p-value less than 0.05 was deemed statistically significant. Results: There was a significant increase in the proportion of successful non-operative treatment (18.6% vs 34%, p=0.03), reduction in the incidence of operative manual reduction (27.1% vs 12.8%; p=0.026), reduction in operative treatment (78.5% vs 63.9%, p=0.034), increased utilization of pre-intervention ultrasound (75% vs96.7%, p<0.0001) and reduction in hospital stay duration (10.47 ±7.95days vs 7.24±4.86 days; p=0.004). Conclusions: Contribution of successful non-operative treatment to the overall treatment of intussusception significantly increased while that of operative manual reduction significantly reduced and bowel resection showed no change. Preoperative utilization of ultrasonography significantly increased while mean duration of admission reduced significantly, but late presentation, morbidity and mortality rates had no significant changes.

INTRODUCTION: Typical first-line management of children with intussusception is enema reduction; however, failure necessitates surgical intervention. The number of attempts varies by clinician, and predictors of failed nonoperative management are not routinely considered in practice. The purpose of this study is to create a scoring system that predicts risk of nonoperative failure and need for surgical intervention. METHODS: Children diagnosed with intussusception upon presentation to the emergency department of a tertiary children's hospital between 2019 and 2022 were retrospectively identified. Univariable logistic regression identified predictors of nonoperative failure used as starting covariates for multivariable logistic regression with final model determined by backwards elimination. Regression coefficients for final predictors were used to create the scoring system and optimal cut-points were delineated. RESULTS: We identified 143 instances of ultrasound-documented intussusception of which 28 (19.6%) required operative intervention. Predictors of failed nonoperative management included age ≥4 y (odds ratio [OR] 32.83, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.91-564.23), ≥1 failed enema reduction attempts (OR 189.53, 95% CI: 19.07-1884.11), presenting heart rate ≥128 (OR 3.38, 95% CI: 0.74-15.36), presenting systolic blood pressure ≥115 mmHg (OR 6.59, 95% CI: 0.93-46.66), and trapped fluid between intussuscepted loops on ultrasound (OR 17.54, 95% CI: 0.77-397.51). Employing these factors, a novel risk scoring system was developed (area under the curve 0.96, 95% CI: 0.93-0.99). Scores range from 0 to 8; ≤2 have low (1.1%), 3-4 moderate (50.0%), and ≥5 high (100%) failure risk. CONCLUSIONS: Using known risk factors for enema failure, we produced a risk scoring system with outstanding discriminate ability for children with intussusception necessitating surgical intervention. Prospective validation is warranted prior to clinical integration.

BACKGROUND: Image-guided reduction of intussusception is considered a radiologic urgency requiring 24-h radiologist and technologist availability. OBJECTIVE: To assess whether a delay of 6-12 h between US diagnosis and fluoroscopic reduction of ileocolic intussusception affects the success frequency of fluoroscopic reduction. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Retrospective review of 0-5-year-olds undergoing fluoroscopic reduction for ileocolic intussusception from 2013 to 2023. Exclusions were small bowel intussusception, self-reduced intussusception, first fluoroscopic reduction attempt>12 h after US, prior bowel surgery, inpatient status, and patient transferred for recurrent intussusception. Data collected included demographics, symptoms, air/contrast enema selection, radiation dose, reduction failure, 48-h recurrence, surgery, length of stay, and complications. Comparisons between<6-h and 6-12-h delays after ultrasound diagnosis were made using chi-square, Fisher's exact test, and Mann-Whitney U tests (P< 0.05 considered significant). RESULTS: Of 438 included patients, 387 (88.4%) were reduced in <6 h (median age 1.4 years) and 51 (11.7%) were reduced between 6 and 12 h (median age 2.05 years), with median reduction times of 1:42 and 7:07 h, respectively. There were no significant differences between the groups for reduction success (<6 h 87.3% vs. 6-12 h 94.1%; P-value = 0.16), need for surgery (<6 h 11.1% vs. 6-12 h 3.9%; P-value=0.112), recurrence of intussusception within 48 h after reduction (<6 h 9.3% vs. 6-12 h 15.7%; P-value=0.154), or length of hospitalization (<6 h 21:07 h vs. 6-12 h 20:03 h; P-value=0.662). CONCLUSION: A delay of 6-12 h between diagnosis and fluoroscopic reduction of ileocolic intussusception is not associated with reduced fluoroscopic reduction success, need for surgical intervention after attempted reduction, recurrence of intussusception following successful reduction, or hospitalization duration after reduction.

BACKGROUND: Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by hamartomatous gastrointestinal polyps along with the characteristic mucocutaneous freckling. Multiple surgeries for recurrent intussusception in these children may lead to short bowel syndrome. Here we present our experience of management in such patients. METHODS: From January 2015 to December 2023, we reviewed children of PJS, presented with recurrent intussusceptions. Data were collected regarding presentation, management, and follow-up with attention on management dilemma. Diagnosis of PJS was based on criteria laid by World Health Organization (WHO). RESULTS: A total of nine patients were presented with age ranging from 4 to 17 years (median 9 years). A total of eighteen laparotomies were performed (7 outside, 11 at our centre). Among 11 laparotomies done at our centre, resection and anastomosis of bowel was done 3 times while 8 times enterotomy and polypectomy was done after reduction of intussusception. Upper and lower gastrointestinal endoscopy (UGIE & LGIE) was done in all cases while intraoperative enteroscopy (IOE) performed when required. Follow-up ranged from 2 months to 7 years. CONCLUSION: Children with PJS have a high risk of multiple laparotomies due to polyps' complications. Considering the diffuse involvement of the gut, early decision of surgery and extensive bowel resection should not be done. Conservative treatment must be tried under close observation whenever there is surgical dilemma. The treatment should be directed in the form of limited resection or polypectomy after reduction of intussusception.

OBJECTIVES: As point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) has emerged as a valuable tool for intussusception screening, this quality improvement study aimed to implement a "POCUS-first" pathway in a Pediatric Emergency Department (ED) to streamline workflow and expedite care for children with suspected intussusception. METHODS: This was a prospective analysis of children diagnosed with ileocolic intussusception in a Pediatric ED between June 2022 and June 2023. The study compared the "POCUS-first" cohort with the group receiving only radiology-performed ultrasound. Key outcomes included physician initial assessment to radiology-performed US time and physician initial assessment to reduction time. Continuous improvement efforts incorporated pediatric emergency medicine physician training, education, and pathway dissemination through plan-do-study-act cycles. RESULTS: The study included 29 patients in the "POCUS-first" pathway group and 70 patients in the non-POCUS group. The "POCUS-first" pathway demonstrated a significantly shorter physician initial assessment to reduction time compared to the non-POCUS group (170.7 min vs. 240.6 min, p = 0.02). Among non-transferred patients, the "POCUS-first" group also had a significantly shorter emergency department length of stay (386 min vs. 544 min, p = 0.047). CONCLUSIONS: Implementation of a "POCUS-first" pathway for managing ileocolic intussusception led to notable improvements in process efficiency. The shorter physician initial assessment to reduction time highlights the potential for expedited decision-making and intervention. These study findings support the potential of this pathway to optimize the management and outcomes of children with ileocolic intussusception.
RéSUMé: OBJECTIFS: Comme l'échographie au point de soin (POCUS) est devenue un outil précieux pour le dépistage de l'intussusception, cette étude d'amélioration de la qualité visait à mettre en Åuvre une voie "POCUS-first" dans un service d'urgence pédiatrique (ED) rationaliser le flux de travail et accélérer les soins aux enfants présentant une intussusception suspectée. MéTHODES: Il s'agissait d'une analyse prospective des enfants diagnostiqués avec une intussusception iléo-colique dans un DE pédiatrique entre juin 2022 et juin 2023. L'étude a comparé la cohorte "POCUS-first" avec le groupe recevant uniquement des ultrasons radiologiques. Les principaux résultats comprenaient l'évaluation initiale par le médecin du temps de radiologie effectué aux États-Unis et l'évaluation initiale par le médecin du temps de réduction. Les efforts d'amélioration continue ont incorporé la formation, l'éducation et la diffusion des parcours des médecins en médecine d'urgence pédiatrique par le biais de cycles de plan-do-study-act. RéSULTATS: L'étude a inclus 29 patients dans le groupe "POCUS-first" et 70 patients dans le groupe non-POCUS. La voie "POCUS-first" a démontré une évaluation initiale significativement plus courte du temps de réduction par rapport au groupe non POCUS (170,7 minutes vs. 240,6 minutes, p = 0,02). Parmi les patients non transférés, le groupe "POCUS-first" a également eu une durée de séjour à l'urgence significativement plus courte (386 minutes vs. 544 minutes, p = 0,047). CONCLUSIONS: La mise en Åuvre d'une voie "POCUS-first" pour gérer l'intussusception iléo-colique a conduit à des améliorations notables de l'efficacité des processus. L'évaluation initiale plus courte du médecin pour réduire le temps met en évidence la possibilité d'une prise de décision et d'une intervention accélérée. Les résultats de cette étude confirment le potentiel de cette voie pour optimiser la prise en charge et les résultats des enfants atteints d'intussusception iléo-colique.

OBJECTIVES: We conducted a comprehensive meta-analysis to compare the effectiveness and safety of fluoroscopy-guided air enema reduction (FGAR) and ultrasound-guided hydrostatic enema reduction (UGHR) for the treatment of intussusception in pediatric patients. METHODS: A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted on retrospective studies obtained from various databases, including PUBMED, MEDLINE, Cochrane, Google Scholar, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), WanFang, and VIP Database. The search included publications from January 1, 2003, to March 31, 2023, with the last search done on Jan 15, 2023. RESULTS: We included 49 randomized controlled studies and retrospective cohort studies involving a total of 9,391 patients, with 4,841 in the UGHR and 4,550 in the FGAR. Specifically, UGHR exhibited a significantly shorter time to reduction (WMD = -4.183, 95% CI = (-5.402, -2.964), P < 0.001), a higher rate of successful reduction (RR = 1.128, 95% CI = (1.099, 1.157), P < 0.001), and a reduced length of hospital stay (WMD = -1.215, 95% CI = (-1.58, -0.85), P < 0.001). Furthermore, UGHR repositioning was associated with a diminished overall complication rate (RR = 0.296, 95% CI = (0.225, 0.389), P < 0.001) and a lowered incidence of perforation (RR = 0.405, 95% CI = (0.244, 0.670), P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: UGHR offers the benefits of being non-radioactive, achieving a shorter reduction time, demonstrating a higher success rate in repositioning in particular, resulting in a reduced length of postoperative hospital stay, and yielding a lower overall incidence of postoperative complications, including a reduced risk of associated perforations.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the pattern of clinical presentations and factors associated with the management outcome of pediatric intussusception among children treated at Wolaita Sodo University Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, Ethiopia. METHODS: This retrospective cross-sectional study included the medical records of 103 children treated for intussusception from 2018 to 2020. The data collected were analyzed using SPSS 25.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA). RESULTS: In total, 84 (81.6%) patients were released with a favorable outcome. Ileocolic intussusception was a positive predictor, with a nine-fold higher likelihood of a favorable outcome than other types of intussusception [adjusted odds ratio (AOR), 9.16; 95% confidence interval (CI), 2.39-21.2]. Additionally, a favorable outcome was three times more likely in patients who did than did not undergo manual reduction (AOR, 3.08; 95% CI, 3.05-5.48). Patients aged <1 year were 96% less likely to have a positive outcome than those aged >4 years (AOR, 0.04; 95% CI, 0.03-0.57). CONCLUSION: Most patients were discharged with favorable outcomes. Having ileocolic intussusception and undergoing manual reduction were associated with significantly more favorable outcomes of pediatric intussusception. Therefore, nonsurgical management such as hydrostatic enema and pneumatic reduction is recommended to reduce hospital discharge of patients with unfavorable outcomes.

ABSTRACT: To compare the effect of ultrasound guided saline enema (USGSE) and x-ray fluoroscopic air enema in the reduction of intussusception in children, 80 children with intussusception were randomly divided into ultrasonic-guided saline enema reduction in 40 cases (USGSE group) and x-ray air enema reduction in 40 cases (air enema group). The enema pressure, success rate, average time, and cost of the 2 methods were compared. The average operation time of the USGSE group was lower than that of the air group ([5.35 ± 1.79] min vs [6.03 ± 2.41] min, P = 0.159), the average pressure of the air group was higher than that of the air group ([10.95 ± 1.54] kPa vs [9.6 ± 1.26] kPa; P < 0.001), the success rate of resetting was higher than that of the air group (87.5% vs 85.0%; P = 0.745), and the cost of USGSE was lower than that of the air group ([339.23 ± 10.73] yuan vs [378.23 ± 18.20] yuan, P < 0.001). Subgroup analysis showed that the success rate of enema treatment in children with onset time <48 hours was significantly higher than that in children with onset time ≥48 hours (98.30% vs 54.50%, continuous correction χ 2 = 22.16; P < 0.001). The success rate and operation time of USGSE in pediatric intussusception reduction are similar to that of air enema, and the advantages of low cost and no radiation are worthy of popularization. For children with onset time ≥48 hours, enema reduction is safe and effective, but the conversion rate to open is high. It is necessary to carefully identify the symptoms of intestinal perforation and necrosis on the basis of strictly following the indications to avoid delayed treatment.

BACKGROUND: Immunoglobulin A (IgA) vasculitis with intussusception is acute and severe vasculitis combined with acute abdomen in children. The diagnosis of the disease depends on the results of imaging examinations, and its treatment mainly includes enema and surgery. The literature summarized the detailed diagnosis and treatment data in previous literature reports. METHODS: We described the clinical manifestations, ultrasonic features, and treatment of patients admitted to a single center and reviewed previous literature regarding cases with detailed clinical data in the PubMed database within the past 20 years. RESULTS: The review included 36 patients, including 22 boys and 14 girls. A total of 32 patients were diagnosed using ultrasound (88.9%). The main sites of intussusception were the ileum and ileocolon in 16 (44.4%) and 11 (30.6%) cases, respectively. Thirteen patients (36.1%) were treated with enema, with 6 responding to the treatment. 26 patients (72.2%) underwent surgical treatment. Patients with ileal intussusception were more likely to be treated with surgery than those with colonic intussusception (P < .05). The single-center clinical data of 23 patients showed that there was no significant difference in laboratory test findings between patients with and without surgical treatment (P > .05). Patients with long insertion lengths were more likely to require surgery and resection (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS: Ultrasonography is the first-line investigation for diagnosis. The main sites of intussusception were ileum and ileocolon. The length of intubation was related to surgery; treatment is according to the intussusception site. Air enema is not suitable for intussusception of the small intestine.

Intussusception is a common cause of acute abdominal pain in children and the most frequent cause of intestinal obstruction in infants. Although often idiopathic, it can stem from conditions like lymphoma. This study delves into lymphoma-related intussusception in children, aiming to enhance early detection and management. A retrospective review encompassed children admitted from 2012 to 2023 with intussusception due to intestinal lymphoma. Demographic, clinical, and imaging data were meticulously extracted and analyzed. The study included 31 children in the lymphoma-related intussusception group. Contrasted with non-lymphoma-related cases, the patients of lymphoma-related intussusception were notably older (median age: 87 months vs. 18.5 months), predominantly male, and demonstrated protracted abdominal pain. Ultrasound unveiled mesenteric lymph node enlargement and distinct intra-abdominal masses; enema reduction success rates were notably diminished. Detecting lymphoma-related intussusception remains intricate. Age, prolonged symptoms, and distinctive ultrasound findings can arouse suspicion. Timely surgical intervention, based on preoperative imaging, proves pivotal for accurate diagnosis. CONCLUSION: Swift identification of lymphoma-related intussusception, distinguished by unique clinical and ultrasound features, is imperative for timely intervention and treatment. Further research is warranted to refine diagnostic approaches. WHAT IS KNOWN: ⢠Intussusception in pediatric patients can be caused by a wide spectrum of underlying diseases including lymphoma. ⢠Early Identifying the exact underlying cause of intussusception is crucial for tailored therapy, however often challenging and time-consuming. WHAT IS NEW: ⢠Lymphoma-related intussusception may present with increased abdominal fluid accumulation, intestinal obstruction, and a higher likelihood of failed reduction during enema procedures. ⢠For high-risk children, repeated ultrasound examinations or further investigations may be necessary to confirm the diagnosis.

BACKGROUND: In children with ileocolic intussusception, sedatives such as midazolam, ketamine and propofol may facilitate radiologic enema reduction, but studies on their separate and joint effects remain controversial. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to systematically analyze studies for the effects of sedatives on the radiologic reduction of ileocolic intussusception in children. METHODS: We searched PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, Scopus and Web of Science from database inception through March 2023 for articles that enrolled children with ileocolic intussusception who underwent non-operative pneumatic or hydrostatic enema reduction under ultrasound or fluoroscopic guidance with or without the use of sedatives. The primary and secondary outcomes were success rate in radiologic reduction of ileocolic intussusception and risk of perforation, respectively. Effect estimates from the individual studies were extracted and combined using the Hartung-Knapp-Sidik-Jonkman log-odds random-effects model. Heterogeneity between studies was checked using Cochran's Q test and the I2 statistic. RESULTS: A total of 17 studies with 2094 participants were included in the final review, of which 15 were included in the meta-analysis. Nine studies reported on the success rate of radiologic reduction performed under sedation in all participants, while six studies compared the success rate in two patient groups undergoing the procedure with or without sedation. The pooled success rate of non-operative reduction under sedation was 87 % (95 % CI: 80-95 %), P = 0.000 with considerable heterogeneity (I2 = 85 %). A higher success rate of 94 % (95 % CI: 88-99 %) and homogeneity (I2 = 12 %) were found in studies with pneumatic enema reduction. Among comparative studies, the odds of success of non-operative reduction were increased when the procedure was performed under sedation, with a pooled odds ratio of 2.41 (95 % CI: 1.27-4.57), P = 0.010 and moderate heterogeneity (I2 = 60 %). In a sensitivity analysis, homogeneity was found between analyzed studies when two outliers were excluded (I2 = 0.73 %). The risk of perforation was not significantly different (OR 1.52, 95 % CI: 0.09-23.34), P = 0.764 indicating small study effects. No publication, bias was detected on visual inspection of the funnel plots or the Begg's and Egger's bias tests. Most studies were categorized as having a low risk of bias using Joanna Briggs Institute checklists. CONCLUSIONS: In selected patient groups, sedation can increase the success rate of radiologic enema reduction in children with ileocolic intussusception without evidence of increased risk of perforation. Systematic review protocol registration: PROSPERO CRD42023404887.

Intussusception is frequently observed pediatric emergency that is often followed by recurrent intussusception after initial treatment. This study investigated the risk factors associated with recurrent intussusception in children agedâ ≤â 3 years. Between January 2007 and December 2015, a cohort study was conducted by linking the Taiwan Maternal and Child Health Database to the Birth Certificate Application database and the National Health Insurance Research Database in Taiwan. Patients agedâ ≤â 3 years with intussusception diagnosis and related treatment were included in our study. Multivariable logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors associated with recurrent intussusception. In total, 5341 children with intussusception agedâ ≤â 3 years were enrolled in our cohort. The adjusted odds ratio (aOR) for recurrent intussusception in children aged 2 to 3 years was 0.62 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.47-0.82) compared with children agedâ <â 1 year, and surgery decreased the risk of recurrent intussusception (aORâ =â 0.64, 95% CI: 0.46-0.88). Male patients had higher risk of recurrent intussusception than female patients had (aORâ =â 1.41, 95% CI: 1.13-1.75). Higher birth weight may increase the risk of recurrent intussusception, but this association was not statistically significant. Furthermore, gestational age did not seem to affect the risk of recurrent intussusception. Surgical treatment and delayed onset of intussusception are associated with a reduced risk of recurrent intussusception; males are associated with increased risk of recurrent intussusception. In addition, we suggest that in early infancy, patients who received non-surgical treatment as the initial treatment for intussusception should be closely followed up for potential recurrence of intussusception.

BACKGROUND: International practice regarding the method used to nonoperatively reduce pediatric intussusception is variable. OBJECTIVE: To provide an overview of ultrasound-guided pneumatic intussusception reduction and assess its safety and effectiveness. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A single-center prospective study was conducted in a tertiary referral pediatric hospital during the 15-year period between January 2008 and February 2023. All patients with ileocolic intussusception underwent abdominal sonographic examination for diagnosis. An ultrasound-guided pneumatic reduction of intussusception was then attempted. Children who were hemodynamically unstable, with signs of peritonitis or bowel perforation and those with sonographically detected pathologic lead points were excluded. RESULTS: A total of 131 children (age range 2 months to 6 years) were enrolled in this study. Pneumatic intussusception reduction was successful in 128 patients (overall success rate 97.7%). In 117 patients, the intussusception was reduced on the first attempt and in the remaining on the second. In three cases, after three consecutive attempts, the intussusception was only partially reduced. As subsequently surgically proven, two of them were idiopathic and the third was secondary to an ileal polyp. No bowel perforation occurred during the reduction attempts. There was recurrence of intussusception in three patients within 24 h after initial reduction which were again reduced by the same method. CONCLUSION: Ultrasound-guided pneumatic intussusception reduction is a well-tolerated, simple, safe and effective technique with a high success rate, no complications and no ionizing radiation exposure. It may be adopted as the first-line nonsurgical treatment of pediatric intussusception.

BACKGROUND: A minority of children experience in-hospital recurrence of intestinal intussusception after treatment. This study investigated the factors associated with in-hospital recurrence of intussusception in pediatric patients in China. METHODS: This retrospective study included patients aged 0-18 years-old with intestinal intussusception treated at Hainan Women and Children's Medical Center between January 2019 and December 2019. Demographic and clinical characteristics were extracted from the medical records. Factors associated with in-hospital recurrence of intussusception were identified by logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: The analysis included 624 children (400 boys) with a median age of 1.8 years (range, 2 months and 6 days to 9 years). Seventy-three children (11.7%) had in-hospital recurrence of intussusception after successful reduction with air enema. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified age > 1 year-old (odds ratio [OR]: 7.65; 95% confidence interval [95%CI]: 2.70-21.71; P < 0.001), secondary intestinal intussusception (OR: 14.40; 95%CI: 4.31-48.14; P < 0.001) and mesenteric lymph node enlargement (OR: 1.90; 95%CI: 1.13-3.18; P = 0.015) as factors independently associated with in-hospital recurrence of intussusception. CONCLUSIONS: Age > 1 year-old, secondary intussusception and mesenteric lymph node enlargement were independently associated with increased odds of in-hospital recurrence of intussusception after successful reduction with air enema.

Ileocolic intussusception is a pediatric emergency with initial non-surgical treatment. Ultrasound-guided hydrostatic reduction in pediatric patients is a widely used initial treatment method in the world; however, its use is not widespread in our environment. We present 4 cases of patients with ileocolic intussusception treated by ultrasound-guided hydrostatic reduction in the Instituto Nacional de Salud del Niño - San Borja (INSNSB), with therapeutic reduction and without complications.

OBJECTIVE: Intestinal intussusception is difficult to diagnose in adults because the symptoms are nonspecific. However, most have structural causes that require surgical treatment. This paper reviews the epidemiologic characteristics, imaging findings, and therapeutic management of intussusception in adults. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective study identified patients diagnosed with intestinal intussusception who required admission to our hospital between 2016 and 2020. Of the 73 cases identified, 6 were excluded due to coding errors and 46 were excluded because the patients were aged <16 years. Thus, 21 cases in adults (mean age, 57 years) were analyzed. RESULTS: The most common clinical manifestation was abdominal pain, reported in 8 (38%) cases. In CT studies, the target sign yielded 100% sensitivity. The most common site of intussusception was the ileocecal region, reported in 8 (38%) patients. A structural cause was identified in 18 (85.7%) patients, and 17 (81%) patients required surgery. The pathology findings were concordant with the CT findings in 94.1% of cases; tumours were the most frequent cause (6 (35.3%) benign and 9 (64.7%) malignant). CONCLUSIONS: CT is the first-choice test for the diagnosis of intussusception and plays a crucial role in determining its aetiology and therapeutic management.
