Keywords:

Adult intussusception occurs rarely and is quite different from pediatric occurrence in both etiology and treatment. It usually has a leading point which could be either a neoplasm or not. This report presents the diagnosis and management of one patient, a 51-year-old man with symptomatic ileo-ileal intussusception caused by pancreas heterotopia. Pancreas heterotopia is unusual and can be a leading point of small-bowel intussusceptions.
