Technical developments and instrumentation: percutaneous transhepatic feeding jejunostomy.

L Haskell, R L Gordon, E Salomonowitz

    Journal of Surgical Oncology
    |May 1, 1985
    PubMed
    Summary

    A novel percutaneous transhepatic approach offers a new route for feeding jejunostomy insertion in patients with advanced antral cancer. This technique utilizes standard percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC) methods and angiographic catheters.

    Area of Science:

    • Interventional Radiology
    • Gastroenterology
    • Surgical Oncology

    Background:

    • Feeding jejunostomy is crucial for nutritional support in patients with upper gastrointestinal malignancies.
    • Conventional methods for jejunostomy placement can be challenging in cases of advanced antral cancer due to anatomical obstruction.

    Observation:

    • A case report details a novel percutaneous transhepatic approach for accessing the jejunum.
    • This technique was successfully employed for feeding jejunostomy insertion in a patient with advanced antral cancer.

    Findings:

    • The described method utilizes standard percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC) techniques.
    • Angiographic catheters were instrumental in navigating and securing the jejunal access route.

    Implications:

    • This percutaneous transhepatic approach may provide a viable alternative for jejunostomy placement when standard methods fail.
    • It highlights the adaptability of interventional radiology techniques in complex oncological cases.
