[Delayed reposition of gastrostomy tube using Savary's dilators]

The delay in substituting a gastrostomy tube after removal leads to the gastrocutaneous tract closure and to the impossibility of putting other nourishment tube without needing another complete endoscopic procedure. We have used the technique described by Tsang through the one which and using Savary's dilators, the stenosed gastrocutaneous tract after accidental removal of the tube, is dilated permitting to put in a simple way a new one. We accomplished the procedure in three patients that attended by removal of the probe and severe stenosis of the stoma. In all they and under endoscopic control we put a new tube in a way rapid and without complications.
