Abstract:
This case report describes the management of a chronically malnourished woman during her first and second pregnancies. The emphasis of the management is on the investigation of her dysphagia and subsequent bypassing of her colonic interposition by the formation of a percutaneous gastrostomy. The case highlights spontaneous conception with a body mass index of 14 and the safety of enteral feeding during pregnancy.
