[Gastroduodenal intussusception complicating Menetrier's disease].
The authors report a very rare case of gastroduodenal intussusception complicating Menetrier's disease. This uncommon condition of unknown aetiology is characterized by hyperplasia of the gastric mucosal folds. Computed Tomography (CT) in high resolution mode can be helpful for diagnosis by showing the cerebriform surface of the giant mucosal folds. Filling the gastoduodenal tract with water is useful in non complicated cases.
