Abstract
Intussusception associated with Yersinia pseudotuberculosis infection was developed in three boys; two of them had a history of drinking unt reated water. All intussusceptions were localized at the ileocolic reg ion, and all patients completely recovered with Gastrografin(R) enema and supportive treatment without complication and operation.
