Abstract:
The management of gastrointestinal complications in patients with complex medical history poses significant challenges to healthcare clinicians. A 42-year-old male patient was admitted to the emergency department with excruciating abdominal pain and signs of bowel obstruction. The patient had a previous history of schizophrenia and esophageal stricture, treated 6 years ago with colonic esophageal interposition. From the computed tomography scan, intussusception of the jejunum in the colonic graft was revealed, which resolved spontaneously after a few hours probably due to the oral contrast. Although, colonic esophageal interposition is a life-saving procedure for long-esophageal strictures, there are rare complications that are still not clearly reported. Jejunocolic intussusception should raise awareness of the clinicians, as one of the potential complications of colonic esophageal interposition.
