Abstract
We report the case of a 3-year-old male who presented,
during viral gastroenteritis epidemic peak, with vomiting
and abdominal pain. He had no fever or diarrhoea.
His mother told us that her son was lethargic and he had abdominal
pain crises. We sent the patient to the emergency
unit where he underwent ultrasound that revealed the diagnosis
of intestinal intussusception. He was operated on immediately.
