Although tumor seeding has been reported in various sites, seeding at the PEG exit site is a rare complication.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods and Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>We describe a clinical case in which squamous cell carcinoma of the hypopharynx implanted at the site of PEG insertion and was successfully removed by surgery. PEG was previously placed by the \u201cpull\u201d technique. A review of the literature, discussion of the mechanism of spread, and recommendations to avoid this complication are discussed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>To avoid this rare and poor prognostic complication, the \u201cpull\u201d technique should be avoided for PEG placement in any patient with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. An alternative method such as the \u201cpush\u201d technique should be preferred. \u00a9 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
