Benign pneumoperitoneum is a complication of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) feeding tube placement. The rate of occurrence is reported as up to 25%. It is usually an incidental finding that arises immediately following the procedure. We report a case of pneumoperitoneum that developed a significant time after the initial procedure. The patient developed intractable vomiting and had to be fed parenterally. The pneumoperitoneum resolved and the gastrostomy tube feed was re-started.
