Abstract

Background: Intussusception in adults is rare and frequently goes undiagnosed, which can have clinical consequences. We present a rare case of small bowel intussusception in an adult female due to a small bowel benign fibrous lesion. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case managed by intraluminal excision of the causative lesion by enterotomy as opposed to formal bowel resection and anastomosis.
