Abstract
We describe three cases of adult intussusception in which ultrasonography provided the correct preoperative diagnosis. Patients underwent ultrasonography to investigate nonspecific acute abdominal pain; intussusception was not suspected. In all cases, the sonographic pattern was typical of intussusception and ultrasonography was the only diagnostic study. Bowel ischemia was not found at surgery in any patient.Entities:
