Early-Pregnancy Intussusception with Perforation after Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: A Case Report.

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
Background: Intussusception is a rare late complication of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), and it is exceptionally uncommon to occur during pregnancy. Its diagnosis is difficult due to the overlapping of symptoms from normal pregnancy and limited options for imaging modalities. This case is notable for presenting in early pregnancy with bowel perforation and being successfully managed with emergency laparoscopy. Case Presentation: A 36-year-old female patient at 15 weeks of gestation (gravida 2, para 1, and living 1) was admitted with sudden onset of severe abdominal pain, weakness, and one episode of vomiting. Her history included RYGB, cesarean delivery, and cholecystectomy. Vital signs and laboratory tests were normal. Ultrasound examination of the abdomen revealed a dilated, noncompressible bowel loop in the right lower quadrant, which raised suspicion of obstruction. Laparoscopy showed marked dilation at the jejunojejunal anastomosis, a small anterior bowel perforation, and retrograde intussusception approximately 20 centimeters distal to the anastomosis. The perforation was repaired, the intussusception was reduced, and bowel viability was confirmed. Recovery was uneventful, with no maternal or fetal complications. Conclusions: This case highlights that intussusception should be taken into consideration in pregnant patients who have undergone gastric bypass and now present with acute abdominal pain. Ultrasound can be a useful diagnostic tool when other imaging modalities are restricted. Early laparoscopic intervention is critical to prevent severe complications and support favorable maternal and fetal outcomes.
