title: [Invagination in childhood].
abstract: This paper is a retrospective study of all children with intussusception, who were treated in the pediatric surgical clinic in the Dr. v. Hauner'sches Kinderspital of the University of Munich from 1970 to 1988. In this time we evaluated 99 cases out of 101 children. Points of interest were epidemiological data, such as sex ratio, average age, place of residence, exact documentation of the anamnesis typical of this pediatric surgical entity, of diagnosis, site of intussusception as well as of frequency of conservative barium enema reduction and surgical treatment respectively. 68 patients of these evaluated 99 cases had to be operated. As far as postoperative courses are concerned bowel obstruction occurs in 6 patients, 4 cases developed a relapse of intussusception and one child died.
