Ileo-ileal intussusception due to inflammatory fibroid polyp: a rare cause of small bowel obstruction in adults.

Intussusception in adults is a relatively uncommon occurrence for a cause of bowel obstruction, which can present acutely, chronically or in an acute on chronic fashion. It is clinically concerning because of the possibility of cancer acting as a lead point. Small bowel tumours are rare, mostly detected incidentally with small bowel obstruction.

The incidence and cost of patients presenting to the Irish health service with complications related to cosmetic procedures carried out in overseas institutions is largely unknown. This heterogenous group of patients is challenging to identify.
