Sammanfattning

Small bowel necrosis is a rare but highly lethal complication associated with postoperative jejunal tube feeding. The causative mechanism remains unclear but is most likely the result of several factors. The ischemic necrosis was preceded by progressive abdominal pain, distension, hypotension and hypovolemia. Timely recognition and surgical intervention may save the patient's life. Percutaneous enteral tube feeding may be used with utmost caution.
