  abstract = {Intussusception is an uncommon cause of intestinal obstruction especially in adult. Adult intussusception accounts for only 5% of all cases of intussusceptions. We presented a case of a 63-year- old lady who presented with 1 week history of right- sided colicky abdominal pain which gradually became generalized, associated with vomiting out bile stained fluids. After series of investigations and worsening condition, emergency exploratory laparotomy was performed an(d unfortunately ileocolic intussusception was found. The patient underwent right hemicolectomy. Histopathological report confirmed lipomatous polyps arising from ileocaecal junction. Most recommendations of management are going towards resection of the involved segment without attempt of reduction as the causes of the intussusceptions in adults are usually due to pathological conditions within the involved segment.},
