Early postoperative ileoileal intussusception following adhesiolysis and enterouterine fistula resection in an adult: a rare case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Adult intussusception is a rare cause of intestinal obstruction and is typically associated with an underlying pathological lead point. Postoperative intussusception without an identifiable lesion is particularly uncommon and may present diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. We report the case of a 44-year-old woman who developed epigastric pain, nausea, and vomiting on postoperative Day 3 following small bowel resection and enterouterine fistula excision for adhesive bowel obstruction. Contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography demonstrated a 20-cm ileoileal intussusception with a characteristic bowel-within-bowel appearance and no identifiable lead point. Urgent surgical re-exploration confirmed ileoileal intussusception ~60 cm proximal to the previous anastomosis. The bowel was viable, and successful manual reduction with adhesiolysis was performed without resection. This case highlights the importance of considering postoperative intussusception in adults presenting with early postoperative bowel obstruction and supports bowel-preserving management in selected patients with viable bowel and no suspicious lesion.
