Abstract Intussusception in adults is highly uncommon and accounts for only 5% of all reported case. Small bowel intussusception is much less common than the ileocolic type, with jejunoileal intussusception being amongst the most rare. Benign tumors of the small bowel are rare clinical entities. These often remain asymptomatic throughout life. Despite comprising 75% of the length and 90% of the surface area of the gastrointestinal tract, the small bowel harbors relatively few primary neoplasms and fewerthan 2% of gastrointestinal malignancies. We report a case of 28 year old female with jejunal submucosal angiolipofibroma and lipoma that became symptomatic due to intermittent obstruction episodes and caused intestinal obstruction due to intussusception. Involved part of jejenum was resected and end-to-end anastomosis was done and the patient’s postoperative period was uneventful. In this case report, the diagnosis and management of intussusception due to benign tumour are discussed along with a literature review.
