Abstract
Intussusception is a disease of childhood and almost always the etiology is idiopathic. We report the case of an 85-year-old woman with ileocolic intussusception that was diagnosed by abdominal computed tomography. With the symptoms of abdominal pain, distention, nausea and vomiting, she subsequently underwent emergency right hemicolectomy. The final diagnosis was ileocolic intussusception due to lipoma, which was confirmed by histopathology. In elderly, frequent diarrhea attacks, coliky pain and incomplete obstruction should be taken into consideration as a possible diagnosis in this uncommon clinical condition

Abstract
İntususepsiyon özellikle çocukluk çağının, etiolojisi her zaman belli olmayan bir hastalığıdır. Biz 85 yaşında tomografik incelemede ileokolik intususepsiyon tanısı alan bir olguyu sunuyoruz. Karın ağrısı, distansiyon, bulantı ve kusma şikayetiyle başvuran hasta acil operasyona alınarak sağ hemikolektomi uygulanmıştır. Histopatolojik inceleme sonucunda lipoma bağlı ileokolik intususepsiyon tanısı konmuştur. Özellikle yaşlılarda sık diyare atakları, kolik ağrılar, tam olmayan tıkanıklık durumlarında bu nadir klinik tablo hesaba katılmalıdır
