Background and objective: Intussusception is the most common abdominal emergency in children. The present study was designed to investigate the prevalence mesenteric adenitis in children with intussusception.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 81 children aged 4- 48 months with intussusception who referred to Mousavi Zanjan hospital during 219- 2021. The data collection tool was a checklist including demographic and clinical variables which were extracted from the patients' records. The data were analyzed using SPSS26.
Results: The mean age was 22.30 (±13.56) months. The majority of the children studied were girls (70.4%). Ileocolic was the most common (45.8%) type of intussusception and the majority of children had mesenteric adenitis (79%). In terms of number, the majority of adenitis were multiple (93.7%) and right lower quadrant (RLQ) was the most common site of adenitis (85.9%). In addition, 56.2% of adenitis had a diameter of less than 1 cm. There was no statistically significant relationship between the variables of age, gender, weight, time of onset of symptoms, duration of hospitalization , vomiting, type of intussusception, type of nutrition, type of treatment, and type of delivery with mesenteric adenitis in children (P<0.05). However, there was a statistically significant relationship between jelly stool and mesenteric adenitis in children, so that all children with jelly stool had mesenteric adenitis (P=0.009).
Conclusion: The prevalence of mesenteric adenitis was high in children with intussusception, and a significant association was observed between these two diseases. However, studies with larger sample sizes are recommended.
