Abstract
Intramuscular glucagon was used in 2 infants with ileocolic intussusception when standard therapeutic barium enema reduction failed. Reduction was accomplished following administration of glucagon and a repeat barium enema. Use of the 2 methods together may improve the success rate of nonoperative reduction of intussusception.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
