Ileo-colic intussusception in a patient with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma

Saudi Med J. 2001 Jul;22(7):638-40.

Abstract

The gastro-intestinal tract is a common site for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and its involvement leads to a variety of clinical presentations. In adults, intussusception has rarely been associated with gastro-intestinal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. When it occurs, computerized axial tomography scanning seems to be the diagnostic tool of choice.
