Figure 1 Colonoscope. A: Endoscopic view through the percutaneous jejunostomy tract demonstrating normal jejunal mucosa and absence of the Foley catheter, confirming distal migration beyond the jejunum; B: Colonoscopic view of the cecum showing the Foley catheter balloon impacted at the ileocecal valve, resulting in near-complete luminal obstruction with surrounding pressure-related mucosal ulceration; C: Balloon decompression achieved by puncture with a 23-gauge injector needle, relieving obstruction and allowing restoration of luminal patency; D: Colonoscopic view demonstrating torsion of the Foley catheter shaft against the colonic mucosa, contributing to difficulty in retrieval.
