RESUMO

Intussusception is the telescoping or invagination of the proximal part of the gastrointestinal tract into an adjacent section. It is rare in adults, accounting for 1% of adult bowel obstruction. Adult presentation of intussusception is variable, with nonspecific, vague symptoms like abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and rectal bleeding. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) scans have the highest sensitivity in the diagnosis of intussusception. The classical findings of intussusception are the target sign and mesenteric vessels lined within the bowel lumen. An abdominal CT scan can reveal a cloverleaf figuration, fluid-filled ileal loops, superior mesenteric venous (SMV) occlusion, and concerns about ongoing sealed perforation or fistulization. Our patient is an 86-year-old female who was diagnosed with a jejunal-jejunal long-segment intussusception, gastro-enteric fistula, and SMV occlusion with distal reconstitution. The patient responded well to conservative treatment and was discharged for follow-up.
