Abstract

A 58-year-old man with Parkinson's disease experienced peritonitis after percutaneous endoscopic gastrojejunostomy (PEG-J) for levodopa–carbidopa intestinal gel treatment despite concomitant use of gastropexy. Although gastropexy reduces complications including peritonitis, clinicians should consider structural characteristics of PEG-J devices and patients’ anatomical differences. We recommend that suture threads are removed 2–4 weeks after PEG-J and that the PEG-J tube length outside the body is routinely recorded to assess tube dislocation.
