Figure 1. A 63-year-old woman in whom two hamartomatous polyps had been removed by colonoscopic polypectomy 18 years earlier presented with intermittent abdominal pain in the right lower quadrant and melena of approximately two weeks' duration. Colonoscopy revealed a large mass extending the entire length of the ascending colon, which was consistent with an intussuscepted small bowel. The patient underwent a right hemicolectomy with a distal ileectomy and had an uneventful recovery.
