Abstract:
We developed a method for passing the enteroclysis catheter at endoscopy in patients requiring upper endoscopy and enteroclysis. This method reduced patient discomfort, the time needed for fluoroscopic tube placement, and overall radiation doses. We conclude that endoscopy and enteroclysis performed together is practical in these patients.
