Intussusception (in-tuh-suh-SEP-shun) is a serious condition in which part of the intestine slides into an adjacent part of the intestine. This telescoping action often blocks food or fluid from passing through. Intussusception also cuts off the blood supply to the part of the intestine that's affected.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM K56. 609 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of K56.

Intussusception refers to invagination or telescoping of a part of the intestine into itself, and malrotation volvulus is a congenital anomaly that results when the normal sequence of rotation and fixation of the bowel fails, which may result in intestinal obstruction.
Causes. The cause of intussusception is not known, although viral infections may be responsible in some cases. It may be caused by an abnormality (such as a polyp) in the intestines or as a result of recent intestinal surgery. In most children there is no abnormality present, and the cause is unknown.
A polyp, tumor, or scar tissue in the intestine may trigger intussusception in adults. A digestive disorder, such as Crohn's disease, may also lead to intussusception. Weight loss surgery or other procedures on the intestine may cause intussusception, too.
