title: [Obstruction of the nasal passage caused by a balloon catheter in a calf].
abstract: Decompression of the rumen as a supporting symptomatic therapy of recurrent bloat in calves and juvenile cattle is used regularly. The gas should be released for several days. This is facilitated by the use of a balloon stomach tube, which can be left in situ for up to five days. However, the use of this tube is not always without risks, which will be discussed on base of a patient.
