    To compare the effect of ultrasound guided saline enema (USGSE) and x-ray fluoroscopic air enema in the reduction of intussusception in children, 80 children with intussusception were randomly divided into ultrasonic-guided saline enema reduction in 40 cases (USGSE group) and x-ray air enema reduction in 40 cases (air enema group). The enema pressure, success rate, average time, and cost of the 2 methods were compared. The average operation time of the USGSE group was lower than that of the air group ([5.35 ± 1.79] min vs [6.03 ± 2.41] min, P = 0.159), the average pressure of the air group was higher than that of the air group ([10.95 ± 1.54] kPa vs [9.6 ± 1.26] kPa; P < 0.001), the success rate of resetting was higher than that of the air group (87.5% vs 85.0%; P = 0.745), and the cost of USGSE was lower than that of the air group ([339.23 ± 10.73] yuan vs [378.23 ± 18.20] yuan, P < 0.001). Subgroup analysis showed that the success rate of enema treatment in children with onset time <48 hours was significantly higher than that in children with onset time ≥48 hours (98.30% vs 54.50%, continuous correction χ 2 = 22.16; P < 0.001). The success rate and operation time of USGSE in pediatric intussusception reduction are similar to that of air enema, and the advantages of low cost and no radiation are worthy of popularization. For children with onset time ≥48 hours, enema reduction is safe and effective, but the conversion rate to open is high. It is necessary to carefully identify the symptoms of intestinal perforation and necrosis on the basis of strictly following the indications to avoid delayed treatment.
