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 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.

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.

Background: Gastroduodenal intussusception is an invagination of a portion of the stomach into the duodenum. It predominately occurs in adults. Case Report: We present a gastroduodenal intussusception in an hypochromic microcytic anemic 2-year-old girl. A large filling defect in the second and third parts of the duodenum, indenting the pyloric antrum, was due to a gastroduodenal intussusception secondary to a cauliflower-like gastric mucosal prolapse polyp, a type of gastric hyperplastic polyp. Conclusion: Anemia may accompany a gastric mucosal prolapse polyp.
