Case Report on Ileocolic Intussusception with Severe Abdominal Pain

Abstract

Introduction A serious disorder known as intussusception occurs when an intestinal segment slips into a neighbouring segment. Food or liquid typically cannot flow through because of this telescoping effect. Ileocolic intussusceptions shares many clinical signs and symptoms with other morbid illnesses, intussusception in adults is an uncommon pathological entity and is still difficult for physicians to diagnose (including appendicitis, abdominal hernias, colic, volvulus, and Meckel diverticulum). Early diagnosis and treatment of intussusception depend on having a high clinical suspicion and using the right imaging tools. The preferred course of therapy for continuous and chronic invagination is surgical surgery. The ileum, ileocecal valve, and a portion of the ascending colon were found to be telescoping inside the terminal segment of the ascending colon, according to abdominal computer tomography and a colonoscopy. Even though intussusception is uncommon, it must always be considered when a patient complains of persistent stomach pain. We present a 2-year-old female patient who was brought to the medical department in the hospital due to severe abdominal pain. After diagnosing the patient, the patient's history was taken and a physical examination was performed. The patient was then prepped for surgery due to the severity of his medical condition and the right preoperative care, medication, and NBM (nil by mouth) were advised and provided. Laparoscopic surgery was used to accomplish the procedure and the patient was transferred to the pediatric intensive care unit (ICU). The patient's IV fluids were continued and both the sufferer and their loved ones received rehabilitative treatment. Conclusion: An intestinal segment slipping into a nearby section causes intussusception. In adults, surgery is usually required to correct the problem. Surgical surgery is the treatment of choice for persistent and chronic invagination. Despite the rarity of adult intussusception, most cases are caused by an underlying disease, such as a tumour. An intestinal segment slipping into a nearby section causes intussusception. Due to this telescoping action, food or liquid normally cannot get through. As a result, bowel rupture, infection, and intestinal tissue death might occur. Surgical surgery is the treatment of choice for persistent and chronic invagination. The majority of these incidents are caused by a tumour or some underlying disease. Adult intussusceptions are a rare and challenging disease condition to diagnose.
