Context: Management of pediatric intussusception typically involves nonsurgical or surgical approaches. Although colonoscopy may offer therapeutic advantages, its precise role in pediatric intussusception remains uncertain. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of colonoscopy in the management of pediatric intussusception. Results: A total of 121 infants and children with intestinal intussusception who underwent colonoscopy were evaluated. The overall success rate of colonoscopic reduction was 88.4% (range across studies, 66.7%–100%). Recurrence within 24 hours occurred in 11 patients (9.1%; range, 6.2%–26.7%). No colonoscopy-related complications were reported.
