Abstract

Intestinal intussusception in adults is less common than in paediatric patients, and may be difficult to diagnose due to non-specific symptoms. Abdominal pain is the main clinical sign, but other symptoms such as nausea or transit disorders may also be present. Abdominal computerized tomography is the key investigation for the diagnosis, with sensitivity approaching 100 %. In 90 % of cases of intussusception in adults, a mass is at the origin of the intussusception. The causes may be benign (lipomas, Meckel's diverticulum) or malignant (metastases, digestive tumours). Management is surgical, with resection of the affected segment and the underlying lesion, due to the risk of serious complications such as perforation or tumour dissemination if a reduction is attempted.

[成人肠套叠]。
肠套叠在成人中比在儿童患者中更少见,并且由于非特异性症状可能难以诊断。腹痛是主要的临床症状,但也可能出现恶心或交通紊乱等其他症状。腹部计算机断层扫描是诊断的关键,其灵敏度接近100%。在90%的成人肠套叠病例中,肿块位于肠套叠的起源处。病因可能是良性的(脂肪瘤、梅克尔憩室)或恶性的(转移瘤、消化道肿瘤)。治疗方法是外科手术,切除受影响的节段和潜在的病变,因为如果试图复位,有穿孔或肿瘤扩散等严重并发症的风险。
