Abstract
Small bowel into small bowel intussusception can present with symptoms similar to those observed in patients with more common small bowel into large bowel intussusception. In most cases, intussusceptions isolated to the small bowel are self-limited and less likely to result in bowel ischemia. Nonetheless, any patient with recurrent intussusception should be evaluated to assess location and for the presence of a pathologic lead point. We report a patient with recurrent small bowel into small bowel intussusception who underwent a comprehensive evaluation that revealed lymphoid hyperplasia in the absence of a pathologic lead point. His symptoms resolved after a dose of oral dexamethasone.
