BACKGROUND: Adult intussusception is a rare phenomenon, acute appendicitis accompanying multiple transient intussusceptions are much more uncommon. Satisfaction and quiting imaging studies after finding an intussusception on ultrasound, may lead diagnostic errors. Radiologists should raise their awareness of imaging findings in intussusception and keep in their mind coexistent troubles in the belly. This unique case presents unusual imaging findings of a rare dual abdominal emergency condition, particularly highlighting the value of abdominal computed tomography. CASE REPORT: 32-year-old female was admitted to Emergency Department with complaints of epigastric abdominal pain and vomiting. US identified 'target' appereance on left paramedian location at umbilical level. Contrast enhanced abdominal CT not only confirmed the enteric intussusception that was demonstrated on previos US, but also showed additional concomitant intussusceptions and inflamed appendix. CONCLUSIONS: Adult intussusception is a rare phenomenon, multiple transient intussusceptions are even more uncommon. This unique report adds, precious clinical and imaging findings of acute appendicitis coexisting with multiple spontaneously resolving intussusceptions, to the literature. Physicians should be alerted for accompanying multiple abdominal pathologies and use justification essentials to make their decisions about the selection of the appropriate imaging modality.
