strategies, and outcomes of pediatric small bowel intussusception (SBI), with a particular focus on surgically treated cases.  \nMETHODS: Records of children diagnosed with SBI between January 2018 and December 2023 were retrospectively reviewed. Demographics, clinical presentation, imaging findings, treatment approaches, and surgical outcomes were analyzed. Statistical comparisons were performed between operative and non-operative groups, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to determine the optimal ultrasound threshold for predicting the need for surgery.  \nRESULTS: Among 618 patients diagnosed with intussusception, 72 (11.6%) had SBI, of which 16 (2.6%) required surgery. Operative patients were significantly older (median: 75 months) than those managed non-operatively (median: 32 months) (p\u003C0.05). Vomiting was significantly more common in the operative group (100% vs. 44.6%, p\u003C0.001). The mean ultrasonographic length of the intussuscepted segment was significantly greater in the operative group (5.7±1.33 cm) than in the non-operative group (3.27±1.18 cm) (p\u003C0.001). A cut-off value of 4.0 cm was identified as predictive for surgical intervention, with 100% sensitivity and 73.1% specificity. Pathologic lead points were found in 87.5% of surgical cases, although none were identified preoperatively. Hydrostatic reduction was successful in 62.5% of non-operative patients.  \nCONCLUSION: This study emphasizes that older age, longer intussuscepted segment on ultrasound, and severe symptoms are predictive of surgical need in pediatric SBI. A 4.0 cm cutoff aids decision-making, while the limited detection of pathologic lead points (PLP) underscores the importance of clinical evaluation.  \nKeywords: l bowel intussusception; children; surgery.  \nINTRODUCTION  \nIntussusception is the leading cause of intestinal obstruction in infants under two years of age and represents the second most common cause of acute abdomen in children, following acute appendicitis.[1] Approximately 90% of childhood intussusceptions are ileocolic in nature. Most cases are idiopathic; however, in a smaller proportion, an underlying pathologic  \nlead point (PLP) is responsible.[2,3] Intussusceptions involving the small bowel are considered uncommon in the pediatric population, with an estimated prevalence of 8-16% among all childhood cases.[4] With the increasing use of ultrasound in recent years, small bowel intussusceptions (SBIs) are being identified more frequently than in the past. Although there are publications in the literature supporting that SBIs are transient and can be managed with conservative follow-up, a consid-  \n\n| Cite this article as: Gerçel G, Anadolulu Aİ, Canbaz FA, Sağ S.
