          Abstract

          Resumen: Introducción: la invaginación intestinal es la causa más frecuente de obstrucción intestinal en menores de tres años. Habitualmente, tras la desinvaginación, los pacientes permanecen ingresados 24-48 horas. Recientemente se ha propuesto el manejo ambulatorio mediante observación clínica durante 12 horas. Nuestro objetivo es valorar la implementación de esta actitud terapéutica. Material y métodos: revisión retrospectiva de las invaginaciones intestinales atendidas en nuestro centro durante los últimos 12 años. Resultados: se incluye 458 pacientes, el 60,3% de ellos varones. Edad media de 24,1 meses, siendo la localización ileocólica la más frecuente (77,7%). El 2,4% presentó alguna causa secundaria. Se realizó neumoenema en 370 niños, requiriendo cirugía el 10,7%. Se registraron 78 recidivas en 56 pacientes (12,2%), 15 de ellos intrahospitalariamente. El tiempo medio para la reintroducción de la alimentación y la estancia media fueron de 28,6 y 64,4 horas respectivamente, sin diferencias significativas entre aquellos que recidivaron y los que no (60,8 frente a 69 horas; t = -0,4; p = 0,689). No se registraron diferencias entre el tiempo de evolución clínica y la tasa de éxito del neumoenema (t = 0,478; p = 0,634); aunque hubo diferencias en la necesidad de intervención quirúrgica (χ² = 5,604; p = 0,018), no hubo ninguna complicación. La reintroducción precoz de la alimentación no se relacionó con más recidivas ni diferencias entre los grupos (30,2% en el grupo que recidivó y 23,1% en el grupo sin recidiva, p = 0,608). Conclusiones: el ingreso hospitalario más allá de 12 horas no disminuye la tasa de complicaciones. Por tanto, consideramos que la observación en urgencias tras la desinvaginación durante 12 horas es una medida segura y coste-efectiva.

          Abstract: Introduction: intussusception is the most frequent cause of bowel obstruction in children under three years. Usually, after reduction, patients remain admitted for 24-48 hours. Ambulatory management has recently been proposed, based on clinical experience of follow-up of the patient's evolution in the Emergency Department of the hospital during the following 12 hours. Our objective is to evaluate the implementation of this new therapeutic attitude. Material and methods: retrospective review of all the intussusceptions treated at our center during the last 12 years. Results: 458 patients were included, 60.3% ot them were male. Mean age was 24.1 months (SD 24.6), with the ileo-colic location being the most frequent (77.7%). 2.4% had secondary causes. A pneumoenema was performed in 370 children, requiring surgery 10.7%. There were 78 relapses in 56 patients (12.2%), 15 of them during admission. The mean time to reintroduce feeding and the mean hospital stay was 28.6 and 64.4 hours respectively, with no significant difference between those who relapsed and those who did not (60.8 vs 69 hours, t = -0.4, p = 0.689). There was no relationship between a longer clinical evolution and pneumoenema succeed rate (t = 0.478, p = 0.634). Although there were differences in the need for surgical intervention (χ² = 5.604, p = 0.018), there were no complications. Early reintroduction of feeding was not related to any recurrences or differences between groups (30.2% in the relapsed group and 23.1% in the non-recurrent group, p = 0.608). Conclusions: hospital admission beyond 12 hours does not decrease the rate of complications. Therefore, we consider that outpatient observation for 12 hours after reduction is a safe and economical measure.

          Childhood Intussusception: A Literature Review

          Background Postlicensure data has identified a causal link between rotavirus vaccines and intussusception in some settings. As rotavirus vaccines are introduced globally, monitoring intussusception will be crucial for ensuring safety of the vaccine programs. Methods To obtain updated information on background rates and clinical management of intussusception, we reviewed studies of intussusception in children <18 years of age published since 2002. We assessed the incidence of intussusception by month of life among children <1 year of age, seasonality, method of diagnosis, treatment, and case-fatality. Findings We identified 82 studies from North America, Asia, Europe, Oceania, Africa, Eastern Mediterranean, and Central & South America that reported a total of 44,454 intussusception events. The mean incidence of intussusception was 74 per 100,000 (range: 9–328) among children <1 year of age, with peak incidence among infants 5–7 months of age. No seasonal patterns were observed. A radiographic modality was used to diagnose intussusception in over 95% of the cases in all regions except Africa where clinical findings or surgery were used in 65% of the cases. Surgical rates were substantially higher in Africa (77%) and Central and South America (86%) compared to other regions (13–29%). Case-fatality also was higher in Africa (9%) compared to other regions (<1%). The primary limitation of this review relates to the heterogeneity in intussusception surveillance across different regions. Conclusion This review of the intussusception literature from the past decade provides pertinent information that should facilitate implementation of intussusception surveillance for monitoring the postlicensure safety of rotavirus vaccines.

            Intussusception. Part 2: An update on the evolution of management.

            Children with symptomatic ileocolic or ileo-ileocolic intussusceptions can be successfully managed in one of a number of different ways. The nonoperative enema reduction technique has major advantages over surgical reduction and high success rates can be achieved using pneumatic or hydrostatic reduction techniques under fluoroscopic or sonographic guidance. This article highlights current concepts and some controversial issues related to management of intussusception, including patient selection for attempted enema reduction, the advantages and disadvantages of each technique, complications, the value of delayed, repeated reduction attempts, the role of imaging after attempted enema reduction, and recurrence of intussusception.

              Risk factors for surgery in pediatric intussusception in the era of pneumatic reduction.

              Surgical treatment is still necessary for intussusception management in a subgroup of patients, despite advances in enema reduction techniques. Early identification of these patients should improve outcomes.
