Patients with impaired ability to eat require nutritional support enterally or parenterally. Gastrostomy is a preferred method because total parenteral nutrition has many complications and high cost. Surgical gastrostomy has been a traditional and well-established method prior to the development of percutaneous gastrostomy. Since then, percutaneous gastrostomy has been established as an effective, safe, easy technique with a low morbidity and mortality rate. Consequently, percutaneous gastrostomy has been the first method for long-term enteral nutrition. The purpose of this review is to describe the techniques, indications, complications of percutaneous radiologic gastrostomy/gastrojejunostomy and to compare with endoscopic method.

Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy tube placement is often performed in patients with a ventriculoperitoneal shunt and it has been accepted as a safe procedure. The authors report a case of a 50-year-old male who developed acute exacerbation of the hydrocephalus immediately after the percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy tube placement without any signs of shunt infection, which has not been reported until now. After revision of the intraperitoneal shunt catheter, the sizes of the intracranial ventricles were normalized.

Buried bumper syndrome is a rare but potentially severe complication of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy tube insertion. Though this complication is uncommon, it may lead to pressure necrosis, bleeding, perforation, peritonitis, sepsis, or death. Each case of buried bumper syndrome is unique in terms of patient comorbidities and anatomic positioning of the buried bumper. For this reason, many approaches have been described in the management of buried bumper syndrome. In this case report, we describe the case of an adolescent Caucasian female who developed buried bumper syndrome three years after undergoing percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy insertion. We review diagnosis and management of buried bumper syndrome and describe a novel technique for bumper removal in which we use a guide wire in combination with external traction to maintain a patent gastrostomy lumen while removing the internal percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy bumper.

Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is a common method for providing long-term enteral nutrition to patients. PEG tube placement and removal are relatively safe; generally, a PEG tube can be removed using gentle traction, and excessive bleeding is rare. The over-the-scope clip system is a new device that can be used for gastrointestinal hemostasis and for closing gastrointestinal fistulae. In the present case, a 68-year-old male patient had to remove the PEG tube because of persistent leakage around the PEG tube. Although it was gently removed using traction, incessant bleeding continued, with a Rockall score of 5 points, even after hemocoagulation was attempted. An over-the-scope clip device was used to achieve hemostasis and fistula closure.

Purpose: Gastrostomy is commonly used procedures to provide enteral nutrition support for severely handicapped patients. This study aimed to identify and compare outcomes and complications associated with percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) and surgical gastrostomy (SG). Methods: A retrospective chart review of 51 patients who received gastrostomy in a single tertiary hospital from January 2000 to May 2016 was performed. We analyzed the patients and the complications caused by the procedures. Results: Among the 51 patients, 26 had PEG and 25 had SG. Four cases in the SG group had fundoplication for gastroesophageal reflux disease. PEG and SG groups were followed up for an average of 29 months and 44 months. Major complications occurred in 19.2% of patients in the PEG group and 20.0% in the SG group, but significant differences between the groups were not observed. Minor complications occurred in 15.4% of patients in the PEG group and 52.0% in the SG group. Minor complications were significantly lower in the PEG group than in the SG group (p=0.006). The average use of antibiotics in the PEG and SG groups was 6.2 days and 15.7 days (p=0.002). Thirteen patients died of underlying disease but not related to gastrostomy, and only one patient died due to complications associated with general anesthesia. Conclusion: The duration of antibiotics use and incidence of minor complications were significantly lower in the PEG group than those in the SG group. Early PEG could be recommended for nutritional supports.

목적 수술이 불가능한 악성 위십이지장 협착 환자에서 구강 경유 스텐트 설치술 실패 시 경피적 위 경유 스텐트 설치술의 기술적 타당성과 임상적 효용성에 대해 알아보았다. 대상과 방법 이 연구는 2008년 10월부터 2016년 4월까지 악성 위십이지장 협착이 있는 환자 중, 구강 경유 스텐트 설치술이 어렵거나 실패하여 위 경유 스텐트 설치술을 시행한 9명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 환자는 췌장암 5명, 위암 2명, 전이암 2명이었다. 경피적 위루술(percutaneous gastrostomy) 후, 이 경로를 통해 이중 팽창성 스텐트를 협착 부위에 설치하였다. 기술적, 임상적 성공률과 합병증에 대해 조사하였다. 결과 기술적 성공률은 8명의 환자에서 성공적으로 설치되어 88%였다. 1명의 환자에서는 협착 부위로 유도 철사가 통과되지 않아 실패하였다. 스텐트 설치 후, 7명의 환자에서 증상의 호전을 보여 임상적 성공률은 87.5%였다. 위루관은 9~20일 후(평균 12일) 제거되었다. 시술과 관련된 주요 합병증은 발생하지 않았다. 평균 추적관찰 기간은 136일(범위, 3~387일)이었고, 1명의 환자에서 스텐트 원위부에 종양의 과성장에 의한 재협착이 발생하였다. 결론 수술이 불가능한 악성 위십이지장 협착 환자에서 구강 경유 스텐트 설치술에 실패한 경우 경피적 위 경유 스텐트 설치술은 기술적으로 어렵지 않고 임상적으로 효과적인 치료 방법으로 생각된다.

This case report describes a baby who received a laparoscopic gastrostomy tube insertion, which was dislodged accidentally at $16^{th}$ postoperative day. After the dislodgement, cutaneous tract rapidly closed, and reinsertion seemed to be impossible. However, gastrostomy tube was reinserted safely with fluoroscopy-guided Seldinger's technique under local anesthesia with sedation. This is the unique method of modified Seldinger's technique for reinsertion of gastrostomy tube under local anesthesia and sedation for accidentally dislodged gastrostomy tube. This method was thought to be safe, easy and useful technique for gastrostomy reinsertion after dislodgement of gastrostomy tube.

본 연구는 개에서 복강경 위관삽입술(LG)을 시행, 수술시간, 합병증, 유착부를 평가하여 수의분야에서 LG의 유용성을 내시경 유도하 경피 위관삽입술(PEG)에 준하여 확인하였다. 정상 비글견 8마리를 두 군으로 나누어 Tri-Funnel Replacement Gastrostomy tube (Bard Inc., USA, 20 Fr.)와 PEG kit (Ponsky "Pull" PEG Kit$^{(R)}$, Bard Inc., USA, 20 Fr.)를 이용하여 LG 및 PEG를 실시하였다. 위관을 통한 영양 공급은 유지 열량 요구량(MER)을 1일 3회로 나누어 2주간 진행하고 LG와 PEG의 수술 중, 수술 후, 사후로 나누어 평가하였다. 모든 개체에서 위관삽입은 성공적이었고, PEG 군에서의 평균 수술 시간이 LG군에 비해 유의적으로 짧았다(p < 0.05). 위-복막간 유착은 군간 모든 개체에서 양호하게 형성되었으나 평균 유착 길이(AL)와 너비(AW)의 수치가 LG군에서 PEG군에 비해 유의하게 높았다 (p < 0.05). 평균 유착 거리(AD)는 군간 차이를 보이지 않았다(p = 0.182). 본 연구를 통해 개에서 LG는 최소 침습적이면서 쉽고 안전하게, 그리고 효과적으로 장관 영양 공급을 실시할 수 있는 방법임이 확인되었다.

Purpose: The method of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube placement can be divided into the pull and introducer techniques. We compared short-term complications and prognosis between patients who underwent the pull technique and two other types of introducer techniques, the trocar introducer technique and T-fastener gastropexy technique. Methods: Twenty-six patients who underwent PEG were enrolled in this study. We retrospectively investigated the age, sex, body weight, weight-for-age Z-score, underlying diseases, PEG indications, complications, duration of NPO (nil per os), pain control frequency, and duration of antibiotic therapy. The patients were classified into three groups according to the PEG technique. The occurrence of complications was monitored for 10 weeks after the procedure. Results: The age, sex, body weight, and weight-for-age Z-score were not significantly between the three groups. Most patients had cerebral palsy and seizure disorders. Dysphagia was the most common indication for PEG. Major complications occurred in 5 (50%), 4 (66.7%), and 0 (0%) patients in group I, II, and III, respectively (p=0.005). Further, peristomal infection requiring systemic antibiotic therapy occurred in 2 (20%), 3 (50%), and 0 (0%) patients in group I, II, and III, respectively (p=0.04). There was no significant difference between the groups with respect to minor complications, duration of NPO, pain control frequency, and duration of antibiotic therapy. Conclusion: The results indicate that the T-fastener gastropexy technique was associated with the lowest rate of major complications.
