ABSTRACT

Although intussusception is the most frequent cause of intestinal obstruction in children, it only represents 5-10% of all adults. The preoperative diagnosis is difficult and it is rarely done by endoscopy. We present a case of adult ileocolic intussusception caused by an ileon terminal hamartoma. The diagnosis was done by colonoscopy.

ABSTRACT

Retrospective study on 617 foreign bodies (FB) located in the upper digestive tract in the years 1981, 1988 and 1989. Of them pertain 541 to adults (greater than 14 years) and 76 to children (less than or equal to 14 years). The youngest was a girl aged 11 months and the oldest, a male aged 98. In adults, the most frequently encountered FB was impacted food. In children, coins. Clinical findings in adults were mainly dysphagia or FB sensation. In children it is more frequent that another person sees the child swallowing or notices the absence of any object. In adults, its most frequent location was Killian's recess. In children it was the stomach. The removal was achieved in 96% of adults and 100% of children. There weren't any serious complications and mild ones were 0.55%.
