Abstract

Post-operative intussusception is a recognised cause of intestinal obstruction in child especially during post-operative period. The diagnosis of post-operative intussusception may be difficult due to inconsistent clinical manifestation. It should be considered in any patient who develops abdominal distension, pain, and vomiting after partial return of gastrointestinal function especially after Ladd’s procedure.
