ABSTRACT
Authors recite the records of a patient (26) with a 3-year history of dubious abdominal complaints and subileus resulting in numerous examinations and surgical observations, with the diagnosis of lower abdominal pain of unknown origin. He was acutely admitted to the department of surgery because of haemorrhage ex ano and convulsive left abdominal pain. Image creative examinations revealed ileus of a probable invagination origin. Partial resection of the transverse colon with "end to end" anastomosis was performed. Histology verified Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. The authors draw attention to the fact that although invaginations are rare above 18 years, when verified preoperatively, elective procedures can be carried out with lower risk to the patient.
