Abstract: 
Acute intestinal intussusception (AII) is the telescoping of one segment of the intestine and its mesentery into the lumen of the adjacent intestine. It is the most common abdominal emergency in young children between 3 months and 3 years old but can occur at any age. We report the case of a 4-month-old infant.
