Reduction of Small Bowel Instussuception Caused by Jejunal Hamartomatous Polyps Documented by Intraoperative Video

چکیده
We present a case of non-Peutz Jegher hamartomatous polyps causing jejuno-jejunal intussusception and small bowel obstruction in a pediatric patient. In addition, we also provide an intraoperative video of the intussusception reduction process. Polyps causing small bowel intussusception are uncommon but not rare. However, we could not find in the medical literature any videos of the intussusception reduction process. We feel this case report, the discussion provided, and the intraoperative video correlation will offer a unique educational perspective to this disease entity. In addition, this case report will also show the importance of considering small bowel intussusception in the differential of a child who presents with vague but persistent abdominal symptoms.

Although small bowel polyps and tumors are rare, their incidence has increased significantly over the past 30 years. Small bowel malignancies can be classified depending upon their cellular origin into four principal histologic types: adenocarcinomas, lymphomas, neuroendocrine tumors or carcinoids and lymphomas, which also include gastrointestinal stromal tumors. The relative ‘rarity’ of these ...

INTRODUCTION In this case report, we describe the successful treatment of a small-bowel intussusception, which was caused by a 3 cm solitary hamartomatous polyp, with single-incision laparoscopic surgery. Single-incision laparoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive surgical procedure with important advantages that allows the reduction of the intussusception and the resection of the polyp. This ...
