Median age at presentation is 4.4 years. Usually presents with features of intestinal obstruction. Common causes include pathological lead points like juvenile polyps, Meckel's diverticulum and lymphoma. However, rarely occurs without an organic cause as presented in the index case.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case presentation:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We present a case of colocolic intussusception in a 5-year-old boy with clinical evidence of blood-stained mucoid stools, abdominal distention and post prandial vomiting.
