Highlights
Materials and Methods: Thirty five children with intussusception were subjected to saline reduction
The technique of ultrasound guided saline reduction used by us was the same as that for conventional hydrostatic barium reduction, in which barium and fluoroscopy were replaced by water and real-time ultrasonography
Use of an enema for nonsurgical reduction of ileocolic intussusception in infants and children was initiated more than 80 years ago [4],[5]
