[Ileum intussusception in an adult: a case report].
Intussusception in adults is a rare cause of intestinal obstruction and is usually secondary to some lesion in the gastrointestinal tract. We report a case of intestinal obstruction due to ileo-ileal intussusception, an inflammatory fibroid polyp formed the leading edge of the intussusceptum, which is a rare polypoidal lesion of the gastrointestinal tract.
