This case report presents a rare instance of intestinal intussusception in a 25-year-old female.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case presentation:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A 25-year-old female presented to the emergency department with severe, sudden-onset abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Physical examination revealed a soft abdomen with tenderness and rebound tenderness initially in the right upper quadrant, which later migrated to the left upper quadrant, along with leukocytosis. Imaging studies, including X-ray, ultrasound, and contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan, demonstrated dilated intestinal loops, a \u201cbowel within bowel\u201d appearance suggestive of intussusception, and a right appendiceal cyst. The patient underwent surgical intervention after failing to respond to initial conservative management.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Clinical discussion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Adult intussusception is rare, often presenting with non-specific symptoms that can delay diagnosis and treatment. Imaging modalities, particularly CT scans, are crucial for accurate diagnosis, localizing the intussusception, identifying lead points, and guiding management. While conservative management may be considered for uncomplicated small bowel intussusceptions, surgical intervention is typically recommended for symptomatic cases, large bowel involvement, or suspected malignancy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This case highlights the importance of maintaining a high index of suspicion for intussusception in adult patients presenting with abdominal symptoms, regardless of age or gender. Early recognition through appropriate imaging, such as contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT), and prompt management, including timely surgical intervention when conservative treatment fails, is essential to optimize patient outcomes in this uncommon but potentially serious condition.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Highlights<\/jats:title>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2024.110626","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,16]],"date-time":"2024-11-16T11:28:03Z","timestamp":1731756483000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Intestinal intussusception: Uncommon occurrence in a 25-year-old female: A case report"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"125","author":[{"given":"Pouria","family":"Zangeneh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Tehran Medical Sciences Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Masoud Saadat","family":"Fakhr","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Tehran Medical Sciences Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kiana","family":"Rezvanfar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Tehran Medical Sciences Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Poorya","family":"Gholami","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Tehran Medical Sciences Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tohid","family":"Taghavi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Tehran Medical Sciences Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Maryam","family":"Mohseni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, Tehran Medical Sciences, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"issue":"3","key":"R1-141-20260423","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"81","DOI":"10.5662\/wjm.v11.i3.81","article-title":"Bowel intussusception in adult: prevalence, diagnostic tools and therapy","volume":"11","author":"Panzera,","year":"2021","journal-title":"World J Methodol."},{"issue":"19","key":"R2-141-20260423","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"162","DOI":"10.1016\/j.sopen.2024.04.007","article-title":"Comparison of two methods: clipping and suturing in laparoscopic appendectomy","author":"Farahani,","year":"2024","journal-title":"Surgery Open Science."},{"issue":"1","key":"R3-141-20260423","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"431","DOI":"10.1016\/j.radcr.2023.10.044","article-title":"Adult intussusception with multiple intestinal adhesions: a case report","volume":"19","author":"Simargi,","year":"2024","journal-title":"Radiology Case Reports."},{"key":"R4-141-20260423","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2023.107977","article-title":"Adult intussusception: a case report","volume":"105","author":"Haidaran,","year":"2023","journal-title":"Int.
