Abstract
A rare case of recurrent cecocolic intussusception in an adult patient with multiple lymphomatous polyposis of the gastrointestinal tract is presented. Clinical features, especially the difficulty in distinguishing this entity from adenomatous polyposis on colonoscopy, and histopathology are discussed. It is important that surgeons and colonoscopists be aware of this rare form of diffuse gastrointestinal lymphoma because of therapeutic implications.
