Article Synopsis
- This study examines the effectiveness and predictors of failure in hydrostatic enema procedures for treating intussusception in children, looking specifically at the use of a water-soluble contrast medium.
- Conducted at the Tokyo Metropolitan Children's Medical Center from March 2010 to May 2022, the research analyzed outcomes from 351 cases where initial attempts were made with the contrast medium positioned at or below 120 cm.
- The findings revealed a 77.5% success rate for reductions at that height, while indicating that younger children (under 12 months) and those with trapped fluid were more likely to experience failed attempts.

Our findings suggested a possible association between inguinal bacterial lymphadenitis in infants and umbilical problems.
