Definition
English
:
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.
