Abstract | Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is a well-established and successful method of nutritional delivery. Complications, although rare, are divided into early or late. Buried bumper syndrome (BBS) is usually a late complication of PEG tube insertion and can cause many issues such as pressure necrosis, peritonitis, and septic shock. Endoscopic evaluation is the definitive diagnosis, and treatment depends on each patient and the degree of depth of disc migration. We present to you a case of buried bumper syndrome in a 66-year-old female that was initially thought to be complicated with peritonitis, and surprisingly occurring only one week after initial PEG tube placement. |
