Abstract
This paper concerns ileo-ileocolic intussusception rather than the commoner ileocolic intussusception. diagnostic criteria for ileo-ileocolic intussusceptions are established by retrospective study of radiological findings in 28 surgically proven cases. Using these criteria, 11 successfully reduced cases were found in the corresponding period (28.2%). All were apparently cured after one reduction: the evidence suggests that a small but significant number of ileoileocolic intussusceptions may be safely reduced by normal methods during barium enema.
