Unusual intraperitoneal migration of nasogastric tube post-gastrojejunostomy tube insertion

We report the case of a 78-year-old male with intraperitoneal migration of the nasogastric (NG) tube post-gastrojejunostomy (GJ) tube insertion. The malpositioned NG tube resulted in signs of infection and required laparoscopic operative intervention to remove purulent fluid in the peritoneal cavity and repair of gastrotomy. Interventional radiologists should recognize the possibility of this rare complication and consider the position of the NG tube during and after the GJ tube insertion.
