Conversion of Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy to Gastrojejunostomy Under Fluoroscopic Guidance for Treatment of Gastrocutaneous Fistula
Persistent enterocutaneous fistula after the removal of a gastrostomy tube is an unusual complication of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG). The following case report describes an 81-year-old man diagnosed with stroke and dysphagia in May 2008. The patient had been using a PEG since 2008, and PEG site infection occurred in June 2013.

متن کاملStudy of Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy Outcomes
Background and Objective: Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is the technique of choice for providing enteral access to patients who require long-term enteral nutrition. This study was performed to evaluate the outcomes and complications of PEG. Materials and Methods: In this semi-experimental study, 77 patients (45 men, 32 women; age mean: 58.9±19.7 years, Min: 14 years, Max: 89 Years)...

Though the indications for gastrostomy placement are varied, dysphagia secondary to a neurological condition is the most common. These catheters were initially placed surgically, but percutaneous endoscopic placement is now the routine in most centers. Interventional radiologis...
متن کاملRadiologic gastrojejunostomy and percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy: a prospective, randomized comparison.
PURPOSE To compare the efficacy of radiologic guided placement of percutaneous gastrojejunostomy (PGJ) and percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG). MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients were randomized to PGJ (n = 66) or PEG (n = 69). Indications for gastrostomy were need for prolonged enteral nutrition (97%) or gastrointestinal decompression (3%), with etiologies of neurologic impairment (81%), h...
