Abstract
We report the case of a 10-month-old boy with intussusception. Following two failed air enemas, successful reduction of his ileocolic intussusception was achieved laparoscopically. We do not advocate abandoning safe and established surgical techniques used to treat irreducible lesions, but we are encouraged by this experience to further explore the role of laparoscopy in the treatment of this common condition.Entities:
