Abstract
Chronic intussusception is a rare but completely correctable cause of failure to thrive in infants and children. The presenting features differ from acute intussusception. We present the case of a 16 month old boy presenting with a three week history of anorexia, diarrhoea, and weight loss with subsequent delayed diagnosis.
