Abstract：
:When presentation is delayed, intussusceptions may be difficult to reduce using standard enema regimens. Our endeavour to minimize the need for surgery in an environment where failed reductions are common has led to the development of an aggressive, non-operative method of reducing intussusceptions. One hundred and six patients with intussusception were reviewed with the aim of evaluating a new method of reducing intussusceptions suited to our Third World environment. In our cohort, delayed presentation was common, with 32% of patients presenting more than 48 h after the onset of the intussusception. On clinical grounds alone, 41% of patients required a primary laparotomy. Standard barium and air reductions for intussusception were rarely successful under these conditions i.e. 13% and 22%, respectively. By using an air enema under general anaesthesia in the operating theatre, the reduction rate has improved to 53%. This approach is suggested as a last attempt at reducing an intussusception prior to laparotomy following failed standard enema reduction, and as the first line of management in the attempted reduction in the patient with delayed presentation without symptoms of peritonitis.
