Abstract

We report a case of retrograde jejunoduodenal intussusception due to a migrated percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube, which was first suggested by the multidetector computed tomography (MDCT). Several such cases have been reported and have mostly been treated by surgical exploration, except for one case that was treated using a conservative approach. We present a case of a PEG-related retrograde intussusception that was successfully managed in a non-surgical manner, which showed no evidence of serious complications.
