was changed:
Successful hydrostatic reduction of colon-colonic intussusception by a single contrast enema.
At follow up visits, the patient was completely normal.

Body
was changed:
Hydrostatic reduction of intussusception is done either by single contrast enema or air enema, which is considered safer. In this case, gastrografin contrast ( 50/50 concentration with normal saline) was used instead of barium contrast.
The study succeeded to relieve the bowel telescoping and contrast reached the ascending colon.
