Jejunogastric Intussusception – A Rare Case Detected On CT

Abstract

Jejunogastric intussusception is a rare surgical emergency, mostly seen after gastrojejunostomy. A rapid CT examination can speed the diagnosis and subsequent management. We used table water as neutral enteral contrast agent to visualize the intussuscepted segment of bowel. Multiplanar capability of CT affords an unambiguous diagnosis. CT with a neutral enteral contrast agent such as water should be a preferred imaging modality, over positive enteral contrast agent such as barium, or an inconvenient endoscopy.
