The classical triad of abdominal pain, vomiting, and bloody stool is absent in chronic intussusception for more than 2 weeks. Here, we report a 6-year-old female with recurrent abdominal pain for 2 months. Ultrasonography of the abdomen revealed an ileocolic-type intussusception. The lesion accompanying the tight fibrous adhesion was treated by resection and ileocolic anastomosis. It was diagnosed as intussusception with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. A high index of suspicion for abdominal pain in children should result in the correct diagnosis and appropriate management.

Background: Although splenomegaly is a common finding in Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, splenic infarction is rarely reported and may be under-recognised, especially in adults. Neurological complications such as aseptic meningitis are also uncommon but documented. The simultaneous occurrence of both complications in the context of primary EBV infection is exceptional.

Intussusception is an uncommon cause of intestinal obstruction in adults and rarely encountered during pregnancy. Duodenal intussusception is particularly rare due to the fixed position of the duodenum. We report a unique case of duodenojejunal intussusception in a pregnant woman at 28 weeks of gestation, who presented with symptoms mimicking acute pancreatitis complicated by biliary tract obstruction.
