תַקצִיר

This study reviews all childhood intussusceptions treated over a 6 year period in a regional centre with six visiting general surgeons and two paediatricians. Clinical presentation, management, complications and outcomes were noted and an attempt was made to follow up all cases. There were 20 patients, with a median age of 6 months (range 10 weeks to 17 months). Only one patient had all four classical features of intussusception (pain, vomiting, 'red currant jelly' stools and abdominal mass). Seven patients were managed successfully by barium enema reduction, but 14 required operation, four following failed radiological reduction. There was one intestinal perforation due to attempted barium enema reduction and one patient required a reoperation for ileal gangrene following operative reduction. There were no deaths and there have been no subsequent recurrent intussusceptions although three cases were lost to follow up. There was a delay in diagnosis in some cases (average duration from onset to diagnosis was 34 h). Although delay was incurred by parents in some cases and in peripheral hospitals in others, there is a need for greater awareness by surgeons of the significance of subtle features such as pallor and lethargy in a child with persistent vomiting. Delay in diagnosis is likely to lead to an increased need for primary surgical intervention. Adverse features (age > 3 months or < 2 years; symptoms > 24 h; small bowel obstruction; dehydration > 5%) were predictive of an increased likelihood of surgical resection, and may help avoid inappropriate attempts at radiological reduction.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
