[Conservative treatment of intestinal invagination in children].

A new method of the conservative treatment of intussusceptions in children by hydrostatic disinvagination with the help of barium enema is described. The durability of the colon was shown to change proportionally to its tone. To make the conservative treatment more efficient and to prevent a perforation of the colon the hydrostatic pressure should depend on the colon tone. Out of 48 patients with acute intestinal invagination 46 children were cured by this method including 2 children with small intestine invagination. In this group of patients there were neither complications nor lethal outcomes.
