Ok, yes, I've known about a half dozen. Please join yahoo grads and ask this question so those who've had them will speak up. When I see your question, if a couple ppl don't answer, I'll fwd the post to them directly, with your permission.

P.S.  My year + long absence has NOTHING to do with my WLS, or my type of WLS. See my profile.

Abstract  Eighty patients who had undergone jejunoileal bypass for morbid obesity were examined by ultrasound at their routine follow-up visits to the clinic. Ultrasonographic evidence of intestinal intussusception was found in 15 patients (19%). Two of these patients were asymptomatic. Ultrasonographic findings were confirmed by operation in 6 patients (5 with intussusception, 1 negative).
