Intussusception in adults is rare, accounting for 0.1% of adult hospital admissions. In contrast to this, it is the leading cause of obstruction in children. In up to 90% of adults a cause can usually be found, but in children this is rarely the case.
We report the case of a 27-year-old lady with a subacute bowel obstruction caused by a jejunal heterotopic pancreas and describe its successful surgical management.
The causes of intussusception in adults are discussed in the literature review.
成人肠套叠很少见，占成人住院病例的0.1%。与此形成对比的是，它是儿童肠梗阻的主要原因。在多达90%的成人中通常能找到病因，但在儿童中情况很少如此。
我们报告一例由空肠异位胰腺引起亚急性肠梗阻的27岁女性病例，并描述其成功的手术治疗。
在文献综述中讨论了成人肠套叠的病因。
