A case of an ileocolic intussusception in an infant is presented, complicated by an unusually "silent" rupture of the intussuscipiens transverse colon. We stress the importance of clinical diagnosis even in the absence of convincing plain film findings. The value of laparotomy is also emphasised in this particular case, where a barium enema could have been potentially hazardous for the patient.
