Abstract
Small bowel intussusceptions are much less common than the ileocolic type, withjejunoileal intussusceptions being amongst the most rare. We review the literature on small bowelintussuception, a case of 16 years old boy with a jejunoileal intussusception involving the part of thesmall bowel, 30cm from the level of the duodenojejunal flexure to 3 feet distal to the ileocaecal valve.The typical CT features of an intussusception and value of CT with regard to identification ofcomplications are highlighted
