Résumé
Intussusception has been considered a rare phenomenon in adults, with most cases occurring secondary to lead points. Most adult cases of intussusception occur secondary to lead points. Lead point intussusceptions typically require surgical intervention, whereas non-lead point intussusceptions are often transient and resolve without surgery. Therefore, accurate identification of the etiology of the intussusception guides subsequent treatment. Lipomas are an uncommon type of lead point. We present a case of intussusception secondary to a lipomatous lead point and describe the radiological diagnosis and surgical management.
