Abstract
Intestinal obstruction is frequently encountered in emergency and intussusception is one of the etiology. The cause of obstruction differs in adult from pediatric age groups, where intussusception is one of the causes of bowel obstruction. Here, we present an unusual case of adult intussusception with a polyp as lead point and featuring epithelioid hemangioendothelioma on histological examination. Till now epithelioid hemangioendothelioma has not been reported in bowel. We have discussed about pathology and management of this rare disease.
