Article Synopsis
- Adult intussusception (AI) is a rare condition in patients over 18 that presents with various symptoms, often requiring surgical treatment, and is primarily diagnosed using CT scans.
- A study of 26 cases revealed that the condition is more common in males with an average age of 53, where the most frequent symptom is abdominal pain; however, bleeding per rectum is notably linked to more severe, malignant causes.
- Understanding the characteristics and predictive factors of AI can help in managing the condition effectively, emphasizing the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in treatment strategies.

Introduction And Importance: Intestinal intussusception is rare in adults and often associated with underlying malignancies. In this case, a colo-colic intussusception involving the descending colon caused acute obstruction, ischemic pain, and carried a high risk for peritonitis, necessitating urgent surgical intervention to prevent severe complications.
Case Presentation: We report the case of a 50-year-old male who presented with acute abdominal obtruction and a three-day history of fecal vomiting, left-sided abdominal pain, and recent rectal bleeding.
