Abstract

Intussusception is a well-known condition that a portion of gut invaginates into the lumen of the immediate adjacent intestine. Intussusception in adult is rare, about 5% of all intussusceptions (Stubenbord and Thorbjarnarson in Ann Surg 172(2):306–310, 1970). We present a rare case of gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors complicated with gastroduodenal intussusception. The preoperative diagnosis was made on multidetector CT and confirmed at operation.
