  Author(s): Ramendra Shukla*, Sudhir B Chandna and Rasna Tiwari
  
  Aim: To understand the scientific basis of intussusception reduction and to determine the effectiveness and success rate of pneumatic reduction and also to identify factors that predict an unsuccessful outcome. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study was carried out in 50 patients of intussusception aged 2 months to 11 years from January 2020 to December 2024. Pneumatic reduction of intussusception was carried out in the standard manner, when a pressure of approximately 100 mm of Hg was applied. Applying Pascal’s principle and Laplace’s law, the pressure could be raised to 120 mm of Hg if the lower pressure was not working. Presenting signs and symptoms, results of radiological investigations, the outcome of attempted reduction, complications and any subsequent surgical interventions were examined. Resul..
