Overview

„Buried bumper syndrome“ is a less frequent but potentially serious complication of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy. We present case reports of two patients in whom buried bumper syndrome was diagnosed by means of X-ray examination and endoscopic examination. In both cases the original gastrostomy was surgically removed and classical gastrostomy was performed.

Key words:
percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy – buried bumper syndrome – gastrostomy
