Abstract
|
|
|
Intussusception is an interesting condition and is one of the most common causes of intestinal obstruction in the infant. We experienced a case of neonatal intussusception in a twoday-old male.
The patient developed bloody stool, without a history of vomiting, after -passing meconium, on the second day of life. Diagnosis of ileo-cecal type intussusception, which was induced by congenital polyp, was confirmed by exploratory laparatomy performed on the 4th day of life.
The polyp was found at the proximal portion of the ileum, 45 ㎝ from the ileo-cecal valve.
In Korea a 40 day old patient was the youngast previously reported. We have presented this case with a review of the literature.
