title: "Twist & slide" bowel obstruction: two different rare causes of adult bowel obstruction in the same patient.
abstract: A man, age 68, presented with two rare clinical entities of adult bowel obstruction. This case showed a caecocolic intussusception (due to a caecal malignant lesion) with a small bowel volvulus secondarily. These are rare but potential life-threatening surgical emergencies.
