A 91-year-old man with suspected small bowel lymphoma underwent anterograde motorized spiral enteroscopy, identifying a stenosing lesion with features of lymphoma in jejunum. Biopsies and tattooing proximal to the lesion were performed. During withdrawal we realized that the overtube was embedded in oesophagus. With an inflated 20mm dilatation balloon partial removal was achieved, being completely removed with Magill forceps. An extensive laceration in oesophagus was treated with hemoclips with good results.

This is one of the first cases of disconnection of spiral overtube described in literature. It can be solved with simple endoscopic techniques, without resorting to more aggressive measures.
