Duodenojejunal intussusception secondary to a duodenal lipoma presenting in a young boy

A case of duodenojejunal intussusception secondary to a single multilobulated duodenal lipoma mimicking acute pancreatitis in a 12-year-old boy is presented. Duodenojejunal intussusception is a rare entity because of the somewhat fixed position of the duodenum within the retroperitoneum.
