AXR with feeding tube tip in the first part of the duodenum
AXR shows a feeding tube coursing along the greater curvature of the stomach and then passing through the pylorus with the tip in the first part of the duodenum. A nasogastric tube is also present with its tip within the body of the stomach.

The diagnosis was feeding tube malfunction due to placement of the feeding tube tip in the first part of the duodenum.
