[Intussusception. 188 treated patients during 22 years (author's transl)].
1982
: This is a review of 188 cases of intussusception collected in 4 separate studies over an 18 year period and compared with each other. An early diagnosis by the pediatrician, the immediate consultation of a pediatric surgeon to detect signs of peritoneal irritation and to attend the barium enema and a well trained pediatric radiologist are essential for success with the barium enema technic of reduction. The percentage of successful reduction by this method increased to 72% in 1972-1974 and then dropped to 56% during the following year. The main factor for this change was the implication of less experienced radiology residents.
