[Jejuno and ileo-ileal invaginations revealing mutiple melanic metastases of the small intestine. Case report].
The authors report the case of 60 year old man with multiple jeuno-ileal metastases from a malignant melanoma of the skin revealed by jejuno-jejunal intussusceptions. In the light of this case, the authors emphasize the frequency and preferential localisation of these metastases at the level of the jejunum and ileum, the usual mildness of their symptoms until the day where acute obstruction requires laparotomy. The multiple lesions, their diversity and their very rapid course.
