Abstract:
We report a middle age man who presented with intermittent
vomiting and loss of weight.
Oesophagogastroduodenoscopy showed numerous antral
hyperplastic polyps with inaccessible duodenum. Contrast
enhanced computed topography demonstrated a classical
target sign of intussusception. This finding was later
confirmed at laparotomy. This rare presentation and
management strategy is discussed.
