Gastroduodenal intussusception is an extremely uncommon condition usually caused by the prolapse of a benign gastric tumor into the duodenum with subsequent invagination of a portion of the stomach wall. A rare case of this condition associated with a gastric lipoma is presented. Clinical manifestations may mimic many other disease entities and are nonspecific. Diagnosis, however, can often be made preoperatively with noninvasive tests, which are usually associated with more specific signs. Treatment involves reduction of the intussusception and surgical excision of the lead point, either endoscopically or through a formal laparotomy.

Gastroduodenal intussusception is a very rare entity and is generally associated with benign tumor of the stomach. We report a new case of central gastroduodenal intussusception related to schwannoma. We emphasize the radiologic features which can be misinterpreted as well as the endoscopic aspect hitherto unreported.

Gastroduodenal intussusception and gastric lipoma are exceedingly rare conditions in childhood. We report the first case of intussusception due to a gastric lipoma in this age group.

Gastroduodenal intussusception is a rarely documented condition that occurs secondary to a mobile leading gastric tumor that prolapses into the duodenum. Its typical radiologic presentation includes lumen narrowing, distally converging gastric folds, infolding and outpouching of the gastric wall, gastric intussusceptum presenting as a filling defect, and a leading tumor in the duodenum. The coil spring pattern, characteristic of bowel intussusception, is not a prominent feature. Two cases are presented and discussed.

Gastroduodenal intussusception is a rarely documented condition. A distinction has to be made between complete gastroduodenal intussusception (CGDI) and either prolapse of a pedunculated tumor through the pylorus or mucosal prolapse through the pylorus. CGDI usually occurs secondary to a pedunculated benign gastric tumor. More rarely the tumor is malignant. We report a case of CGDI associated with gastric adenocarcinoma. We emphasize diagnostic difficulties that can be generated by CGDI.

An 18-year-old Chinese male was admitted to our hospital with recurrent abdominal pain, abdominal distension and intermittent non-bilious vomiting of about 2 months standing. A mildly tender mass measuring about 6 x 7 cm was present in the right upper quadrant area, and an abdominal computed tomography scan with enhancement showed a clearly encapsulated mass occupying the right side of the upper intra-abdominal area. Endoscopy revealed two huge cauliflower-like polyps and one small polyp in the stomach, and the biopsy specimens showed hyperplastic polyps. Moreover, multiple pigmentation of the buccal mucosa was also noted. The intra-abdominal mass was found to be a gastroduodenal intussusception following laparotomy. Gastroduodenal intussusception occurring secondarily to Peutz-Jegher syndrome, is a rarely documented condition. Only one case has been reported in Japan during the previous years. We report on another case, and review the literature.

Gastroduodenal intussusception caused by a gastric lipoma is an uncommon condition, and only a few cases have been reported in the medical literature. A case of a 72-year-old man who complained of weight loss and intermittent episodes of nausea and vomiting is presented. Diagnostic workup demonstrated a mass in the second portion of the duodenum. The patient underwent a diagnostic laparoscopy followed by an exploratory laparotomy that confirmed the gastroduodenal intussusception by a gastric lipoma. In addition, the anatomical and clinical presentation, diagnosis and management of this entity are discussed.

A 42-year-old morbidly obese patient (BMI 44.1 kg/m(2)) was admitted to our emergency room with upper abdominal pain, nausea, and cholestasis. Nine years ago, a vertical banded gastroplasty had been performed (former BMI 53.5 kg/m(2)) with a subsequent weight loss to BMI 33.0 kg/m(2). After regaining weight up to a BMI of 47.6 kg/m(2), 5 years ago a conversion to a gastric bypass was realized. A computed tomography of the abdomen showed an invagination of the remaining stomach into the duodenum causing obstruction of the orifice of common bile duct. The patient underwent an open desinvagination of the intussusception and resection of the remaining stomach. Gastroduodenal intussusception is rare and mostly secondary to gastric lipoma. To prevent this rare but serious complication, the remaining stomach could be fixed at the crura of the diaphragm, tagged to the anterior abdominal wall by temporary gastrostomy tube, or resected.

Gastroduodenal intussusception is not a common clinical condition. It is usually caused by transpyloric prolapse of a benign gastric lesion into the duodenum. In the present report, the authors present an extremely rare case of gastroduodenal intussusception in which gastric carcinoma served as the lending point. Pre-operative diagnosis was made from endoscopy and biopsy. The patient was treated successfully by subtotal gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection. The clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management of this entity were discussed and the literature was reviewed. Both the condition itself and the leading tumor, gastric carcinoma, are extremely rare and to the authors' knowledge. This is the first report in Thailand.

Gastroduodenal intussusception is an infrequent cause of gastrointestinal obstructive disease. Benign neoplasms, gastrointestinal stromal tumors and pedunculated adenocarcinomas of less than 5 cm have been reported to cause gastroduodenal intussusception. We report a case of 76-year-old woman who was presented with a 3-day history of nausea and vomiting due to upper gastrointestinal obstruction. Computed tomography revealed gastroduodenal intussusception with the transpyloric herniation of alarge gastric hyperplastic polyp. The patient underwent laparoscopic wedge resection with the eversion method.
