Intussusception in chronic renal failure

J B Carr, F C Luft, R J Hamburger

    Archives of Surgery (Chicago, Ill. : 1960)
    |August 1, 1976

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Spontaneous intussusception in adults is uncommon. In chronic uremia patients, intramural hemorrhage may initiate intussusception due to uremia-associated coagulopathy.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Nephrology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Spontaneous intussusception is a rare condition in adults.
    • Chronic uremia is a condition characterized by impaired kidney function.

    Observation:

    • Two adult patients with chronic uremia presented with intussusception.
    • Histologic examination revealed intestinal intramural hemorrhage in resected segments.

    Findings:

    • Intussusception in adults with chronic uremia is linked to intestinal intramural hemorrhage.
    • Uremia-associated coagulopathy is a potential contributing factor.

    Implications:

    • This finding suggests a potential mechanism for intussusception in uremic patients.
    • Further research may elucidate the role of coagulopathy in gastrointestinal complications of uremia.
