Postoperative intussusception of the appendiceal stump is a rare complication following appendicectomy. In this case, an infant

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Gastrointestinal Surgery

Background:

  • Appendicectomy is a common surgical procedure.
  • Intussusception of the appendiceal stump is a rare postoperative complication.

Observation:

  • An infant underwent appendicectomy during a right inguinal herniotomy.
  • The infant developed appendiceal stump intussusception two days post-surgery.

Findings:

  • Diagnosis was confirmed via ultrasonography.
  • Spontaneous reduction of the intussusception occurred during anesthesia induction prior to laparoscopic intervention.

Implications:

  • This case highlights a rare complication of appendicectomy.
  • It underscores the importance of considering intussusception in postoperative patients.
