Multiple intussusceptions secondary to Peutz-Jegher's syndrome in an adult male: a case report from Pakistan.

Intussusception is a medical condition characterized by invagination of the intestinal segment, causing obstruction and leading to potential complications such as ischemia, necrosis and perforation. While paediatric intussusception is well documented with a peak in ages between 4 and 36 months, adult intussusception is a rare condition usually involving a lead point. In this article, we present an uncommon case of an adult male with worsening of his long-standing lower abdominal pain for the last 2 months. Radiological test reports revealed target-like lesions demonstrating two intestinal intussusceptions, for which he underwent a small bowel anastomosis, exploratory laprotomy and resection. On receiving the histopathology report, hamartomatous polyps with features favouring Peutz-Jegher's syndrome were identified as a possible lead point.
