title: Chronic intussusception associated with Yersinia enterocolitica mesenteric adenitis.
abstract: An unusual case of chronic intussusception, without any digestive sign, secondary to mesenteric lymphadenitis caused by Yersinia enterocolitica is reported. Operative reduction by taxis was performed but ileopexy and antibiotic treatment were also carried out to reduce chances of recurrent intussusception.
