    Summary

    Intussusception in infants can be diagnosed using barium enema, showing a characteristic "cupping" sign. Successful treatment involves hydrostatic pressure, confirmed by barium reflux into the small intestine.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Surgery
    • Diagnostic Imaging

    Background:

    • Intussusception is a common surgical emergency in infants.
    • Ileocolic intussusception requires prompt diagnosis and management.

    Observation:

    • A case study of an 8-month-old infant presenting with symptoms of ileocolic intussusception.
    • Radiographic findings included the classic 'cupping' sign on barium enema.

    Findings:

    • Barium enema confirmed ileocolic intussusception.
    • Successful reduction was achieved using hydrostatic pressure.

    Implications:

    • Barium enema is an effective diagnostic tool for pediatric intussusception.
    • Hydrostatic reduction is a viable, minimally invasive treatment option.
