Complications in the removal of PEG have rarely been reported. Especially patients been operated for head and neck cancer can be a serious problem for the removal of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy. A case of an incomplete removal of PEG and occlusion of the lower bowel with subsequent perforation is reported.
