Knotted nasogastric tube in the posterior nasopharynx: A case report.

Nasogastric tubes are widely used for enteral feeding and administration of medication but unexpected complications can arise during their insertion or removal.

A brief review of the literature on nasogastric position confirmation techniques is also presented.
