The condition, which is defined as a telescoping of a proximal portion of the small or large bowel into the lumen of an adjacent segment of bowel, is most commonly seen in children. Among pediatric cases, the majority is benign and treated non-operatively. However, in adults, intussusception is the result of pathologic and often malignant lead points in the majority of cases. This makes surgical resection and tissue diagnosis the only definitive treatment option. While the majority of adult intussusception cases involves a pathologic lead point, a small percentage is idiopathic, without an identifiable lead point. We present a 32-year-old man with acute on chronic abdominal pain and cross-sectional imaging that identified jejunal intussusception, which was confirmed in operating room and resected. Interestingly, no pathologic lead point was identified on pathologic review. We discuss our diagnostic approach, surgical decision making and final tissue diagnosis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjaa542","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,8]],"date-time":"2020-12-08T01:14:18Z","timestamp":1607390058000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Idiopathic adult intestinal intussusception: a rare cause of an acute surgical abdomen"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"2020","author":[{"given":"Eliot R","family":"Gange","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, University of California Davis, Sacramento, CA 95817, USA"},{"name":"Department of Surgery, David Grant USAF Medical Center, CA 95433, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marco A","family":"Grieco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, University of California Davis, Sacramento, CA 95817, USA"},{"name":"Department of Surgery, David Grant USAF Medical Center, CA 95433, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Scott D","family":"Myers","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, David Grant USAF Medical Center, CA 95433, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0014-4974","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Timothy M","family":"Guenther","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, University of California Davis, Sacramento, CA 95817, USA"},{"name":"Department of Surgery, David Grant USAF Medical Center, CA 95433, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021010216595515100_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"473","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.2007-0035","article-title":"Three-year surveillance of intussusception in children in Switzerland","volume":"120","author":"Buettcher","year":"2007","journal-title":"Pediatrics"},{"key":"2021010216595515100_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"185","DOI":"10.1259\/bjr.75.890.750185","article-title":"Adult intussusception\u2014a CT diagnosis","volume":"75","author":"Gayer","year":"2002","journal-title":"BJR"},{"key":"2021010216595515100_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"315","DOI":"10.1007\/s10151-019-01980-5","article-title":"Adult intussusception: a systematic review and meta-analysis","volume":"23","author":"Hong","year":"2019","journal-title":"Tech Coloproctol"},{"key":"2021010216595515100_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"134","DOI":"10.1007\/s00268-014-2759-9","article-title":"Adult intussusception: a retrospective review","volume":"39","author":"Honjo","year":"2015","journal-title":"World J Surg"},{"key":"2021010216595515100_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"407","DOI":"10.3748\/wjg.15.407","article-title":"Intussusception of the bowel in adults: a review","volume":"15","author":"Marinis","year":"2009","journal-title":"World J Gastroenterol"},{"key":"2021010216595515100_ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"030","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0036-1593429","article-title":"Intestinal intussusception: Etiology, diagnosis, and treatment","volume":"30","author":"Marsicovetere","year":"2016","journal-title":"Clin Colon Rectal Surg"},{"key":"2021010216595515100_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"11","DOI":"10.1308\/003588414X13824511650579","article-title":"Small bowel intussusception in adults","volume":"96","author":"Potts","year":"2014","journal-title":"Ann R Coll Surg Engl"},{"key":"2021010216595515100_ref8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1186\/1865-1380-4-8","article-title":"Idiopathic adult intussusception","volume":"4","author":"Soni","year":"2011","journal-title":"Int J Emerg Med"}],"container-title":["Journal of Surgical Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article-pdf\/2020\/12\/rjaa542\/35361699\/rjaa542.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"syndication"},{"URL":"http:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article-pdf\/2020\/12\/rjaa542\/35361699\/rjaa542.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,2]],"date-time":"2021-01-02T22:00:06Z","timestamp":1609624806000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article\/doi\/10.1093\/jscr\/rjaa542\/6059763"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,1]]},"references-count":8,"journal-issue":{"issue":"12","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/jscr\/rjaa542","relation":{},"ISSN":["2042-8812"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2042-8812","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published-other":{"date-parts":[[2020,12]]},"published":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,1]]},"article-number":"rjaa542"}}
