A68 DISTAL MIGRATION OF A PERCUTANEOUS GASTROJEJUNAL DUODOPA INFUSION TUBE DUE TO BEZOAR FORMATION AT THE JEJUNAL TUBE TIP

摘要

Continuous intestinal infusion of levodopa/carbidopa intestinal gel (LCIG) for the treatment of advanced Parkinson’s Disease (PD) leads to less variability in plasma drug levels and improved symptom control. Percutaneous Gastrojejunostomy (PEG-J) tube placement has a high placement success rate; however, delayed tube malfunctions occur in approximately 58% of cases within two years. A rare complication is bezoar formation at the jejunal tube tip.
