preprint
OA: closed
Abstract
Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube is a common procedure. This discusses the rare complication of acute pancreatitis, due to tube migration, causing obstruction of the ampulla of Vater. Radiological confirmation of tubes prior to usage may aid in preventing this reversible complication.
