Abstract

Intussusception is rare in adults and accounts for only 1–5% of cases of bowel obstruction; in the majority of cases, it is secondary to a lead point and most commonly occurs as ileocolic intussusception; gastrogastric intussusception is extremely rare. The case of a 60-year-old lady with gastrogastric intussusception secondary to a gastric gastrointestinal tumour is reported and the relevant literature briefly reviewed.
