Abstract
Background: Malignant melanoma of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) is a rare presentation. Malignant tumours are a known cause of adult intussusception. Very few cases of small bowel intussusceptions due to metastatic melanoma have been reported. Metastatic melanoma to the GIT is rarely detected preoperatively with the diagnosis being made intraoperatively. Surgery is considered the standard of care for adult intussusception but the literature lacks consensus on the optimal surgical approach.
