Intussusception in association with childhood cocaine intoxication: a case report.

A case report of an 11-month-old infant with cocaine intoxication and intussusception is presented. We present this case because there are no prior reports in the literature of cocaine intoxication associated with intussusception. The diagnosis was not initially considered in this patient. We feel the association is biologically plausible and alert physicians to consider intussusception in the differential diagnosis of the cocaine-exposed child with vomiting and abdominal pain.
