Among the complications of ventriculoperitoneal shunt placement, bowel perforation is rare a complication found in 0.01%-0.07% of cases, and typically occurs in premature infants and neonates [1]. To date, less than 100 such cases have been recorded of which only a few have appeared in the radiological literature. Here we discuss the current literature, the radiological features, clinical presentations and the management.Radiology case reports1159-1162https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC6138861biostudies-literatureA ventriculoperitoneal shunt incidentally found in the stomach.PMC6138861Hewitt KCohen-Addad DIBell DfalseA ventriculoperitoneal shunt incidentally found in the stomach.We report a case of a ventriculoperitoneal shunt incidentally found within the stomach while the patient was undergoing a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube placement.
