Adult small intestinal intussusception, often caused by masses, presents with non-specific symptoms. Surgical resection is crucial for diagnosis and treatment, especially in complex cases like Shone's syndrome.
Area of Science:
- Gastroenterology
- Surgical Oncology
Background:
- Adult small intestinal intussusception is a rare condition.
- It is frequently secondary to a pathological lead point, such as benign or malignant masses.
- Symptoms are non-specific, including abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and bleeding.

Although digestion of proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids may begin in the stomach, it is completed in the intestine. The absorption of nutrients, water, and electrolytes from food and drink also occurs in the intestine. The intestines can be divided into two structurally distinct organs—the small and large intestines.
Small Intestines
The small intestine is an ~7 meter-long tube with an inner diameter of just 2.5 cm. Since most nutrients are absorbed here, the inner lining of the...

Introduction
Inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, encompasses a group of disorders characterized by chronic inflammation or ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract.
Risk Factors
The exact cause of IBD remains unclear, although it is believed to be due to a mix of genetic, environmental, microbial, and immune factors. Genetic factors are significant in determining susceptibility to IBD, with family history being a critical risk factor. Individuals with a first-degree relative who has IBD are at...
