| Summary: | Abstract Most cases of intussusception are thought to be idiopathic, related to viral infections, structural abnormalities, or certain vaccinations. In this report, we present the development of intussusception in a pediatric patient who was coronavirus 2019 (COVID‐19) positive. Although the most common gastrointestinal symptoms of COVID‐19 virus are diarrhea and vomiting, there recently have been rare case reports of intussusception in patients throughout the world who are severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 positive. This case is only the second known report in the United States and the second case reported globally that required surgical intervention for definitive management.
