Infections of the upper respiratory tract or gastrointestinal tract in children, often combined with enlarged mesenteric lymph nodes, may also affect the normal peristalsis of the intestinal tube and lead to intussusception.

2, secondary intussusception often occurs in the intestinal tube with lesions, such as Merkel’s diverticulum, polyps, tumors, intestinal wall hematoma (such as allergic purpura), etc. as a trigger and become the starting point of intussusception.
