35-year-old male with history of cellulitis at G-tube site, abdominal pain. Grayscale and color limited ultrasound of the site of the patient's G-tube insertion demonstrates a circumscribed round anechoic structure in the subcutaneous soft tissues consistent with the patient's G-tube balloon which has migrated into the subcutaneous soft tissues. There is surrounding induration of the subcutaneous soft tissues with punctate areas of increased echogenicity measuring approximately 1.4 cm, however no drainable collection is identified at this time.
Findings consistent with gastrostomy balloon migration into the subcutaneous tissues. Surrounding inflammatory or phlegmonous changes without evidence of drainable fluid collection or abscess.
