Small bowel intussusceptions are much less common than the ileocolic type, with jejunoileal intussusceptions among the rarest [1].Gangrenous Intussusception is a dangerous condition requiring immediate revival, early exploration,and resection of the affected bowel to lessen mortality and morbidity. Jejunal polyps causing such pathology are uncommon and noteworthy. Here we present one such case.

Abstract Background: Small bowel volvulus (SBV) is a benign gastrointestinal surgical condition in which there is a torsion of all or parts of a segment of small bowel on its mesenteric axis. It has been contributed significant burden of surgical emergency as cause of small bowel obstruction in developing countries. The main objective this study was to explore clinical and epidemiological profile of Small bowel volvulus in Northcentral Ethiopia Method: The study was conducted at Debre Tabor General Hospital, South Gondar in Northcentral Ethiopia. The medical records of patients with a discharge diagnosis of small bowel volvulus were reviewed. The patients were seen for a 4year period from Jan1, 2016-Dec31, 2019. The study was hospital-based retrospective cross-sectional and data were collected with a standardized structure questioner tool. The collected data checked for any inconsistency, code, and enter SPSS version 23 for data processing and analysis. Descriptive analyses were represented as frequency, percent, mean ± standard deviation for normal distribution, and Median ± Interquartile range for skewed data. Cross tabulation analysis was done for risk factors contributed for mortality and morbidity of SBV.Result: There were 148 patients with Small bowel volvulus as a cause of small bowel obstruction was admitted within four years. The annual occurrence rate of SBV was 35cases per year. Small bowel volvulus represented 59% of small bowel obstruction and 36.3% of bowel obstruction. The majority of SBV were males (N=125, 84.5%) and females were (N=23, 15.5%). The age ranged from 15-78years.The mean age was 41.14±(SD=15.4) .The most common clinical presentation was abdominal pain 98% and vomiting 91.2%. The median time of hospital stay was 5 days (± IQR=2).The mean duration of illness before hospital admission was 2days (± SD=1.4) and median was 1 day (± IQR=2). The morbidity rate was 5.4% (N=8) and the mortality rate was 3.4 %( N=5) Conclusion: Annual occurrence of SBV was 37 cases per year. The prevalence of SBV was 59% of small bowel obstruction and 36.3% of bowel obstruction respectively.

Abstract Introduction: Mortality and morbidity after abdominal trauma are important problems in military casualties. This study aimed to assess the patterns of abdominal traumatic injuries in military personals.Methods: The cross-sectional study assessed the data of 111 cases. All military casualties that referred at hospital from May 2014 to June 2017 were included. The morbidity and mortality rate of patients was analyzed by SPSS-20 software.Results: The most common damaged organ was the small intestine (43 cases of small bowel repair with AIS = 2) while the most severely damaged organ was the Spleen (4 cases of AIS = 6). The most damaged organ was the small intestine with ICD10 =S36.4 (64 cases) and the few damaged organ was bladder injury with ICD10 = S37.2 (8 cases). There was a statistically significant relationship between the trauma mechanism, injuries accompanying the abdominal trauma, and the final outcomes of the patients (P<0.05).Conclusion: The results showed that the most damages were associated with the small intestine in the umbilical region and most treatments were delivered as laparotomy surgery.

Intestinal obstruction during pregnancy is very rare. The mechanical intestinal obstruction was mostly due to adhesion from previous surgery.  Pregnancy may mask the symptoms of intestinal obstruction, and virgin abdomen adds to the ambiguity of the diagnosis. The mortality and morbidity increased for the mother and the fetus in the presence of bowel gangrene. We present a case of intestinal obstruction at mid-term pregnancy with extensive small bowel gangrene which necessitates right hemicolectomy and ends with a good outcome for the mother and fetus.
