Ileocecocolic and Colocolic Intussusception in a Young Jindo

Ileocecocolic and Colocolic Intussusception in a Young Jindo

An eight-month-old, intact female Jindo, weighing 9 kg with a one-day history of acute bloody diarrhea was referred. Plain abdominal radiographic findings included evidence of a soft tissue tubular mass within the dilated colon. In ultrasonographs, a target-like mass was identified with multiple hyperechoic and hypoechoic parallel wall layers. A barium enema showed a large radiolucent filling defect within the colon and a completely occlusive lumen. On the basis of these images, ileocecocolic and colocolic intussusception was diagnosed. Surgical manual reduction, resection and anastomosis were performed. The patient recovered normally without any complications or recurrence.
