Double intussusception (DI) is a rare infant surgical condition. This report details the third childhood case of idiopathic DI, highlighting its extreme rarity in medical literature.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Gastrointestinal Pathology

Background:

  • Intussusception is a frequent surgical emergency in infants.
  • Double intussusception (DI) represents an exceptionally uncommon variant of this condition.

Observation:

  • The case involves an 8-month-old female infant presenting with double intussusception.
  • The etiology of the DI in this patient was idiopathic, meaning no underlying cause was identified.

Findings:

  • This case represents the third documented instance of idiopathic double intussusception in a child within the English-language medical literature.
  • The rarity of this specific condition is emphasized by its infrequent reporting.

Implications:

  • This case contributes to the scarce body of knowledge on idiopathic double intussusception in pediatric populations.
