Abstract
Intussusception is uncommon among adults. Primary Non Hodgkin’s lymphoma of the intestine presenting as Intussusception in an adult patient is very rare. We report the case of a 46 year old man who presented as Intussusception and was found to have NonHodgkin’s lymphoma. He underwent resection followed by chemotherapy with, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, prednisolone and rituximab and is remission at 2 years.
