[Disorders of consciousness as an initial symptom of intestinal invagination].
Two infants with intussusception were presented with lethargy and vomiting. Initially, the classical abdominal manifestations of the disease were missing. In order to avoid a delay of the correct treatment, intussusception should be considered in infants with altered consciousness and ultrasonography of the abdomen should be included in the diagnostic work up.
