Case Presentation

• Histology– Polyp at 40 cm Tubulovillous adenoma– Mass at 45 cm Invasive adenocarcinoma

• Staging CT scan showed mass in the descending colon and another large mass in the cecum.

Diagnosis

Intussusception of the cecum into the descending colon due to cecal adenocarinoma

Clinical Questions

• What is the incidence of adult intussusception?• What is the traditional understanding of the

etiology of adult intussusception?• How has CT changed our understanding of the

etiology and natural history of adult intussusception?

• Is there a role for endoscopy to treat adult intussusception?

Incidence of Adult Intussusception

• Cross-sectional study from Glasgow, UK estimated an annual incidence of 2 – 3 cases per 100,000 (<0.1% hospital admissions)

• Intussusception accounts for ~ 1% of adult patients with bowel obstruction

Etiology of Adult Intussusception

Felix Am J Surg 1976

Diagnosis of Adult Intussusception

• Retrospective review of 33 adults with 41 cases of intussusception on CT.

• 37 cases of small bowel involvement and 4 cases of colonic involvement– All 4 colonic cases had neoplastic lead point on

follow up– 29 cases (from 23 patients) of enteric involvement

had non – neoplastic lead points• 16 of 23 patients with idiopathic etiology

– None of these patients had recurrent intussusceptionWarshauer Radiology 1999

Diagnosis of Adult Intussusception

• Retrospective review of 37 patients with intussusception on CT and median 119 days of follow up

• Only 6 patients (17%) required surgery• 25 of these patients with “self-limiting”

intussusception– 13 of these patients without intussusception on

follow up imaging

Diagnosis of Adult Intussusception

Lvoff Radiology 2003

Diagnosis of Adult Intussusception

• Multivariate, stepwise, logistic regression analysis showed that intussusception length was the only variable independently predictive of outcome, with an odds ratio of 1.57 (95% CI: 1.17 – 2.11).

• All 20 patients with intussusception length < 3.5 cm had self-limiting outcomes.

Lvoff Radiology 2003

Diagnosis of Adult Intussusception

• Retrospective review of 121 patients with 136 intussusceptions on CT

• 88% enteroenteric intussusceptions• Only 6% of intussusceptions required surgery• 2.5% of entroenteric intussusceptions treated

with surgery• Compared with 45% of colonic

intussusceptions treated with surgery

Lvoff Radiology 2003

Role of Endoscopy

Kitamura GIE 1990

44 year old woman with repeated episodes of abdominal pain, diarrhea, and vomiting.Barium enema showed a lipoma which was reduced with colonoscopy and later resected.

Role of Endoscopy

• Idiopathic prolapse of ileal mucosa through ileocecal valve mistaken for cecal mass on imaging and reduced with colonoscopy.

• One out of 13 patients identified on retrospective review from 1981 – 1994 underwent successful colonoscopic polypectomy of ileal lipoma with subsequent reduction.
