ABSTRACT
Nasogastric (NG) tube insertion is a common clinical procedure used for both diagnostic
and therapeutic purposes. As the importance of enteral nutrition is being increasingly
recognized; the use of NG tube insertion has steadily increased. Here, we present
an interesting case in which a kinked NG tube was removed in a unique manner with
“push and pull” technique without untoward trauma.
