Abstract

Intussusception is defined as invagination of bowel within adjacent segment. Invariably it is the proximal into distal bowel it is commonly seen in child between 3-9 month, very rarely it is seen in adults. Child to adult ratio is 20:1. Most common cause in adult is associated with a lead point which is usually a polyp, sub mucosal lipoma or tumor (GIST). Intussusception Colo colic is most common. And thereafter comes ileocolic. A gastro intestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is Defined as spindle epithelioid or occasionally pleomorphic mesenchymal tumors of gastrointestinal tract that expresses the KIT protein and approximately 2% of all neoplasm of the gastro intestinal tract is classified as GIST.

Introduction

Intussusception is defined as invagination of bowel within adjacent segment [1, 5-7]. Invariably it is the proximal into distal bowel it is commonly seen in child between 3- 9 month to [4-7,8], very rarely it is seen in adults [10]. Child to adult ratio is 20:1 [6-12-16]. Most common cause in adult is associated with a lead point which is usually a polyp, sub mucosal lipoma or tumor (GIST). Intussusception Colo colic is most common [13].    And thereafter comes ileocolic [4-10-14]. A gastro intestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is Defined as spindle epithelioid or occasionally pleomorphic mesenchymal tumors of gastrointestinal tract that expresses the KIT protein and approximately 2% of all neoplasm of the gastro intestinal tract is classified as GIST. [9-20]. Gist is most commonly located in the stomach (60-70%) [6-9-11] and rarely in duodenum and rest 30-40% are seen in small bowel and very rare in large Bowel [7-12-13-15].

Presentation of case

18 yrs. male presented with history of severe abdominal pain, severe bilious vomiting for 3-4 days his abdomen was distended, guarding present, per rectal examination was revealed no any abnormality, pulse was 130 /minute. on blood examination scan shows his Hb was -14.9 gm total count was 12000 Bilirubin was 8.1 on day of surgery, CT scan was done on day admission shows ileocolic intussusception with multiple enlarged mesenteric lymph nodes seen.

Considering his age and CT scan findings laparotomy was planned on exploration ileocolic intussusception was found .it was reduced gradually completely it shows some intraluminal mass so resection and anastomosis was done, total operative time was 2.00 hrs. resected specimen shows 40*30*20 mm sized smooth marginated tumor.  Post-operative Course found low level of albumin so it was replaced. His bilirubin levels came down regularly but total count and CRP levels not came down in spite of higher antibiotics pt. have 2 episodes of Fever in post operative period. Pt was absolutely fine on 7th post op day so was discharged with oral higher antibiotics. Histopathology was done s/o spindle cell /epithelioid tumor cells neoplasm s/o GIST.

Discussion

In this report we describe the diagnosis and management Strategies to Primary GIST in Terminal part of ilium, in adults or adolescent’s intestinal invagination or Intussusception is rare accounting for 5 % of all intussusception [5-9-12] and 1% of all intestinal obstruction, there is surgical consensus that adult susception requires surgical resection because of majority of patients have intraluminal lesion. Adult colonic intussusception should be resected unblock [3-5-16-17]. It is controversial whether initial reduction should be performed prior to resection [18-19-20]. The risk of intraluminal seeding, venous embolization and anastomotic Complications should be Considered in case of initial reduction [4-7-9-10-16]. In this case pre-Op diagnosis was intussusception accompanied by? GIST thus we planned limited resection, liver and perineum was looks apparently normal and multiple small lymph node was seen that seems reactionary so HPE was done for lymph node.

Conclusion

Patient Perspective

The patient and his family were concerned about weather surgery would be adversely affect oral ingestion or other activities of daily living, the surgery was performed with no post operative Complications Other than leukocytosis in post op period without fever. After the surgery the patient was able to ingest food and returned to his normal ADL. Patient was informed about the regular medical follow up.
