Ileo-colic Intussusception
Oral contrast and fluid in multiple mildly dilated small bowel loops. In the right abdomen, there is a complex mass suggesting intussusception.- NOTE: the*jelly roll* of mesenteric fat drawn into the telescoping small bowel of the intussusception.

FINDINGSSupine and upright plain films show a few air fluid levels along the right side and some dilated loops of small bowel.Axial CT images show a large mass in the right abdomen extending from the region of the ascending colon to the region of the transverse colon. The mass has low attenuation centrally and areas of higher attenuation surrounding it consistent with fat filled mesentery and surrounded by edematous bowel wall. The mass does not have a typical target appearance since most of the mass was imaged in the long axis and not axial plane.There are vessels (mesenteric) invaginating into the mass. There is a lower attenuation *leading point* mass - probably mesenteric fat.
