نبذة مختصرة
A patient with Foley catheter tube gastrostomy was seen with vomiting and jaundice resulting from the prolapse of the tube into the jejunum. Repositioning of the catheter results in complete resolution of symptoms. Migration of the inflated balloon of a Foley gastrostomy tube, causing high intestinal obstruction and gastrointestinal bleeding, has been reported. Obstructive jaundice is another rare but reversible complication.
