Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Department of Radiology performed ultrasound for patients suspected of having intussusception in resource-limited settings might be either unavailable or significantly time delayed.
OBJECTIVE: Our objective was to present a case of intussusception successfully diagnosed by point-of-care ultrasound and to review the sonographic appearance and diagnostic criteria for intussusception.
CASE REPORT: An emergency physician utilized point-of-care ultrasound to diagnose intussusception in a young patient in Haiti.
CONCLUSIONS: In resource-limited settings, point-of-care ultrasound performed by a physician trained to diagnose intussusception can reduce the time to definitive management and thereby potentially reduce complications such as bowel ischemia and necrosis, dehydration, and sepsis.
