The presence of trapped fluid on ultrasound as high predictive value for intestinal necrosis in pediatric intussusception

Introduction: Intussusception is a pediatric emergency. If it not treated immediately, the obstruction process can cause arterial and leads to intestinal necrosis. Not all patient shows classic syndrome triad. Thus, imaging needed make diagnosis. Ultrasonography first choice of in children because easy, without radiation sedation. It has high accuracy for diagnosis intussusception. Ultrasonographic features intussusception including target or doughnut sign pseudo kidney sign. The presence trapped fluid intussusception, correlated with ischemia necrosis found surgery. This research aimed assess sensitivity, specificity, ultrasound examination compared intra-operative findings reported by surgeons form patients Saiful Anwar Hospital, Malang. Material Methods: was observational analytic cross-sectional design. used retrospective data abdominal results surgical operating reports 30 who were diagnosed Results: Trapped depiction on sensitivity 80%, specificity 75%, an 76% regards necrotic bowel as findings. Conclusion: good predictor cases children.
