Ileocolic Intussusception Due to Low-Grade Appendiceal Mucinous Neoplasm

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: We report a rare case of low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm (LAMN) causing ileocolic intussusception. The case underscores the importance of considering ileocolic intussusception in differential diagnoses for nonspecific gastrointestinal symptoms. Early diagnosis via contrast-enhanced CT and scrupulous surgical intervention are crucial for favorable outcomes.
