Abstract
Buried Bumper Syndrome (BBS) is defined as migration of inner bumper (fixating internal part of PEG) along the stoma channel. The bumper may be partially covered by over-growth mucosa or completely dislodged outside the gastric wall. Complete BBS without visible part of inner pumper can be a challenge for endoscopic management. Here, we present a 72yearold nursing home resident with complete BBS.
