[Laparoscopic Surgery for an Intussusception Caused by Rectosigmoid Colon Cancer after Pre-Operative Reduction by Transanal Insertion of a Circular Sizer - A Case Report].

: An octogenarian man complaining of bloody stool was referred to our hospital. A digital examination, abdominal enhanced CT and endoscopy led to a diagnosis of intussusception due to rectosigmoid colon cancer, but he was not suffering from bowel obstruction. An elective laparoscopic Hartmann's operation was performed after reduction by transanal insertion of a circular sizer. It may be difficult to reduce an intussusception induced by rectal cancer. We report this case with a review of the relevant literature.
