[[Surgery]] is not the first-line treatment option for patients with intussusception. [[Surgery]] is usually reserved for patients with either unstable patient, [[Gastrointestinal perforation|intestinal perforation]], [[peritonitis]], a mass lesion and patients in whom medical therapy was completely unstable. Technique includes [[intravenous fluid]] resuscitation, [[nasogastric tube]] decompression and use of [[Laparoscopic surgery|laparoscopy]]. Benefits of [[laparoscopy]] include accurate [[diagnosis]], rapid recovery and minimal use of [[narcotic]] [[analgesia]] post-operatively.

If the intussusception cannot be reduced by an [[enema]] or if the [[[intestine]] is damaged, then a surgical reduction is necessary. In a surgical reduction, the abdomen is opened and the part that has telescoped in is pulled out manually by the surgeon or if the surgeon is unable to successfully reduce it or the bowel is damaged, the affected section will be resected. Often, the intussusception can be reduced by [[laparoscopy]], whereby the segments of intestine are pulled apart by forceps.

Overview

Surgery is not the first-line treatment option for patients with intussusception. Surgery is usually reserved for patients with either unstable patient, intestinal perforation, peritonitis, a mass lesion and patients in whom medical therapy was completely unstable. Technique includes intravenous fluid resuscitation, nasogastric tube decompression and use of laparoscopy. Benefits of laparoscopy include accurate diagnosis, rapid recovery and minimal use of narcotic analgesia post-operatively.
