Summary :
Intussusceptions of bowel is more frequent in children but
in adult it is less. Generally adult intussusceptions carry the
risk of malignancy. So treatment option is not similar with
pediatric variety. A female of 40 years was admitted with severe
intractable pain, vomiting but no malena. Ultrasonographic
findings and CT scan of abdomen suggested that the lesion
could be of bowel origin. After resuscitation the patient was
managed surgically and with good outcome.
