Objective: To report a 15-y, single-center experience in the management and outcomes of ileocolic intussusception (ICI) episodes. Methods: A retrospective study was performed in patients with ICI episodes, who were treated at a single quaternary referral center from 2005 to 2019. Data evaluated included patient demographics, clinical presentation, treatment modalities, hospital stay, complications, and outcomes. Results: A total of 546 ICI episodes (66.1% males) were included, with a median age at diagnosis of 15 mo. Enema reduction was performed in 478 patients (87.6%), with an overall success rate of 85.8%. Hydrostatic saline enema was the most effective method (89.3%) when compared to pneumatic (80.6%) or barium enema (79.8%), this difference being statistically significant (p = 0.031). No associated complications were observed during nonoperative reduction. Surgical treatment was performed in 101 patients, in whom 36 bowel resections were performed. Postoperative complications were reported in 6 patients (5.9%). Hospital stay was significantly longer in patients with operative management (median 5 d vs. 1 d; p < 0.001). Conclusions: Nonoperative management has a high overall success rate and low complication and recurrence rates. Saline enema reduction presents the highest effectiveness, and should be considered the first-line treatment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
