Abstrakt: A 25-year-old woman presented to our hospital with left flank pain and diarrhea. Contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography(CT)showed a target sign in the descending colon. She was diagnosed with intussusception of the colon. Colonoscopy revealed a tumor at the splenic flexure. We performed surgery and found an invaginated transverse colon at the splenic flexure. Reduction was unsuccessful with Hutchinson's maneuver, and we performed partial resection of the invaginated colon. Histopathological diagnosis was adenocarcinoma, tub1, SM2. Adult intussusception is uncommon, especially in young adults. It is usually caused by a polyp or tumor. We report a case of intussusception caused by colon cancer in a young female patient, and review the literature.
