Figure 1 Computed tomography of abdomen: Computed tomography revealed an ileo-ileal intussusception.
The leading point revealed hypovascular mass measuring 1 cm in a diameter.
Figure 2 The lesion was externalized using forceps and hands through the umbilical incision.
Figure 3 Leading point of intussusception was palpable and soft mass was confirmed.
Figure 4 Microscopic findings of the resected specimen.
Polycystic mass with convolutional pattern was found. Cutting lines are shown by lines.
Figure 5 Microscopic findings: Cysts were lined by a flat epithelial endothelium.
No blood cells were found.
Figure 6 Immunohistochemical examination: The endothelial cells were partially positive for D2-40 (A) and CD34 (B).
