Histological study of intestinal atresia due to intrauterine intussusception. 1984

Y Hayashida, and K Ikeda, and N Hashimoto

Histological studies were conducted on 4 patients with intestinal atresia due to intrauterine intussusception. This atresia is characterized by a polypoid lesion as the remnant of the invaginated and necrotized intestine in the distal intestinal lumen. As the result of the histological survey in the affected intestine, we tentatively classified this atresia into two types, type A and B. In type A, the polypoid lesion is observed at the blind end, with relatively good preservation of the structure of the intestine. In type B, the polypoid lesion is located apart from the blind end, and the lesion is markedly necrotic. The interruption of intestinal blood flow seemed to be more severe in type B than in type A.

D007443	Intussusception	A form of intestinal obstruction caused by the PROLAPSE of a part of the intestine into the adjoining intestinal lumen. There are four types: colic, involving segments of the LARGE INTESTINE; enteric, involving only the SMALL INTESTINE; ileocecal, in which the ILEOCECAL VALVE prolapses into the CECUM, drawing the ILEUM along with it; and ileocolic, in which the ileum prolapses through the ileocecal valve into the COLON.
