Abstract

An unusual case of intussusception is reported in which two parallel loops of small intestine had intussuscepted into a third distal loop. The similarity to Maydl's hernia led to the term 'intussusception en W.' Review of the available literature failed to reveal any previous report of such a case. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
