Heterotopic gastric mucosa leading to recurrent intussusceptions: Report of a case
Surgery Today, 05/04/09
Elemen L et al. - This report presents a case of HGM in a 4-year-old boy. The patient presented with acute abdominal signs with a right lower quadrant mass. His medical history indicated three episodes of recurrent intussusceptions. The abdominal ultrasound examination detected an intussusception. A laparotomy is required for the diagnosis and treatment in complicated cases. Surgical management should include reduction of the intussusception and careful manual examination of the ileum which may expose such pathology. An intestinal resection and anastomosis is sufficient to prevent complications.
