“…The incidence of intussusception has a wide range of occurrence in several parts of the world, ranging from 1.5 to 4 cases per 1000 live births [1]. In our area, it was estimated to be 1 in 220 to 240 live births [2].…”

“…Since Hipsley [5] described his experiences in 1935, there have been several case reports among siblings [1,[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] ( Table 1). We have experienced cases of 24 siblings in 12 families, which was the largest report on pairs of siblings in the literature.…”

Studies associate rotavirus vaccination with intussusception. In Germany, a retrospective multicenter matched case-control study was performed to identify risk factors for intussusception with a special focus on rotavirus vaccines. Children with place of birth and residence in Germany who had been treated for intussusception from 2010 to 2014 and who had been less than 1 year old at the time of intussusception were recruited. Case report forms were independently validated by two pediatricians according to the criteria of intussusception defined by the Brighton Collaboration (BC). Cases with the highest diagnostic certainty (level 1) were matched with population-based controls by age, gender, federal state, and place of residence. Information on vaccine exposures originated from vaccination certificates. One hundred and sixteen cases were matched with 272 controls. A significantly increased adjusted odds ratio (aOR) for intussusception (5.74, 95% CI: 1.51-21.79) was detected in individuals immunized with rotavirus vaccine dose 1 prior to symptom onset as compared to non-exposed individuals. Age at the start of the rotavirus immunization series did not modify the risk of intussusception. The odds for intussusception were not increased postdose 2 and 3 as well as any dose. One further risk factor for intussusception, family history of intussusception (aOR 3.26, 95% CI 1.09 − 9.77) was identified. Breastfeeding was found to have a protective effect (aOR 0.54, 95% CI 0.33 − 0.88). Rotavirus vaccine dose 1 was associated with a 5.7-fold increased risk to develop intussusception regardless of age at immunization whereas the overall risk for intussusception in the first year of life was not increased.

Simultaneous intussusception associated with adenovirus infection in monozygotic twins

Rationale: Intussusception, a common cause of intestinal obstruction in children, typically requires medical reduction. Here, we describe the case of a pair of twins who had simultaneous intussusception and were positive for fecal adenovirus—strongly indicating that adenovirus infection may be a main cause of the intussusception. Patient concerns: Two 1-year-old twin girls were brought to Cathay General Hospital one after another on the same day. Both presented with intermittent abdominal pain, abdominal distension, diarrhea, and loss of appetite. Diagnoses: Their laboratory data were adenovirus positivity in rectal swab culture. Intussusception was diagnosed through a lower gastrointestinal series. Interventions: The twins were treated with reduction for intussusception. Outcomes: Both patients recovered well, without recurrence. Lessons: Most cases of intussusception are idiopathic. However, some potential risk factors—as strongly suggested by the current cases—are genetic factors and adenovirus infection.
