Safe technique for direct percutaneous endoscopic jejunostomy tube placement using single-balloon enteroscopy with fluoroscopy.
Direct percutaneous endoscopic jejunostomy (DPEJ) is a useful method for the delivery of nutrition in patients with a variety of gastrointestinal (GI) problems [1–3]. However, DPEJ using standard colonoscopes or the push technique remains a technically challenging procedure, with success rates of about 68% in expert hands [2]. Herein, we present the key steps to conducting a successful DPEJ usi...
متن کاملDirect percutaneous endoscopic jejunostomy tube placement using a fine needle for jejunal anchoring.
Percutaneous endoscopic gastrojejunos− tomy (PEGJ) tube placement is a technical− ly simple procedure that is the most com− monly used method of endoscopic jeju− nostomy. However, it only allows the placement of jejunostomy tubes with a diameter of 3 ± 4 mm (9 ± 12 Fr), which are prone to luminal occlusion and migra− tion [1± 3]. In addition, it has been report− ed that PEGJ tubes may not preve...
متن کاملSerum voriconazole levels following administration via percutaneous jejunostomy tube.
Candida glabrata causes approximately 5 to 15% of nonalbicans Candida infections (2). Amphotericin B or high doses of fluconazole have been the “gold standard” for management of all systemic yeast infections (2, 5, 9). Voriconazole, a new triazole antifungal drug, has lower MICs than fluconazole and itraconazole for C. glabrata (1, 4, 5). We describe a case in which a patient with infection due...
متن کاملThe interventional radiologist as "clinician": what does it mean? CanMEDS for the interventional radiologist.
There is a large movement within the field of interventional radiology (IR) and various related organizations (including the Society of Interventional Radiology and the Canadian Interventional Radiology Association) for interventional radiologists to become more clinical. This is seen as the necessary next step for the specialty as it continues to evolve and grow. Here, we take a novel approach...
متن کاملLaparoscopic-Assisted Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy Tube Placement
BACKGROUND Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is the most common way of placing a feeding tube. Sometimes PEG cannot be used to safely place a feeding tube, most commonly secondary to an inability to transilluminate the abdominal wall. Whereas open gastrostomy was previously necessary in such cases, laparoscopic-assisted percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (LAPEG) is a viable option and ...
