[Prenatal intestinal invagination. Presentation of a case and review of the literature].

We report a case of intrauterine intussusception in a female newborn. Despite the absence of intestinal atresia or any sign of ischemic necrosis, the manual reduction of the intussusception was impossible because of the multiple adhesions developed in the prenatal period. Laparotomy was done at the age of 10 days, the lesion was resected and end-to-end anastomosis was performed. The postoperative course was uneventful.
