Radiologic techniques offer alternatives for long-term enteral nutrition when endoscopic methods fail. While successful, radiologic gastrostomy and transgastric jejunostomy have fewer complications than radiologic jejunostomy.

Area of Science:

  • Interventional Radiology
  • Gastroenterology
  • Medical Devices

Background:

  • Endoscopic techniques are common for enteral nutrition but not always feasible.
  • Radiologic interventions provide alternative routes for nutritional support.
  • Long-term enteral feeding requires reliable and safe access methods.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of various percutaneous radiologic techniques for enteral nutrition.
  • To compare radiologic methods with each other and with endoscopic approaches.
  • To identify optimal radiologic techniques based on patient-specific conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Percutaneous radiologic gastrostomy (PRG)
  • Percutaneous radiologic transgastric jejunostomy (PRTGJ)

  • Percutaneous radiologic jejunostomy (PRJ)

    • Main Results:

    • High technical success rates for PRG (91-95%) and PRTGJ (91-95%).
    • Lower success rate for PRJ (85-88%).
    • Major complication rates vary, with PRG and PRTGJ generally having lower rates than PRJ. Late-onset complications occur in 2.9-13% of cases.

    Conclusions:

    • Radiologic techniques are effective for enteral nutrition, especially when endoscopy is contraindicated.
    • PRG and PRTGJ are highly successful with acceptable complication profiles.
    • PRJ is indicated when other methods fail, despite a lower success rate and potentially higher complication risk.
