    Percutaneous gastrostomies provide enteric feeding and small bowel decompression. This radiological procedure is effective with a low complication rate in 71 patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Gastroenterology
    • Interventional Endoscopy

    Context:

    • Percutaneous gastrostomies and gastroenterostomies are crucial for enteric feeding in patients with esophageal or hypopharyngeal obstruction.
    • These radiological procedures are also indicated for small bowel decompression.
    • The study details the experience with 71 patients undergoing these interventions.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of percutaneous gastrostomies/gastroenterostomies for enteric feeding and small bowel decompression.
    • To describe the procedural techniques, including gastric distension, localization, and access methods.
    • To report the complication rates associated with the procedure.

    Summary:

    • Air insufflation via nasogastric tube is used for gastric distension.

  • Sonography and fluoroscopy guide localization of the liver and colon before puncture.
  • Both Seldinger and Trocar techniques are effective for gastric access, with feeding tubes advanced into the jejunum to prevent reflux and aspiration.

    • Impact:

    • Percutaneous gastrostomies offer a viable solution for nutritional support and decompression in complex gastrointestinal cases.
    • The procedure demonstrates a low complication rate, with only 4 out of 71 patients experiencing issues.
    • Advancing feeding tubes into the jejunum effectively minimizes risks of gastroesophageal reflux and aspiration.
