Background: Parenteral nutrition is commonly used to ensure nutrition support and prevent the harmful effects of malnutrition, which frequently occurs after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (aHSCT). Nevertheless, enteral nutrition supports the restoration of the gut barrier and microbiome as well as protects against infectious complications and acute graft-vs-host disease. Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) may also be beneficial for gastric decompression and drug administration. Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study to evaluate the impact of PEG on treatment outcomes in 75 children who underwent aHSCT with (n = 34) or without (n = 41) PEG from 2005 to 2016.Results: In 34 patients, PEG was used to ensure enteral nutrition support (n = 30), oral drug intake (n = 28), and abdominal decompression (n = 2). During the study period, we observed a beneficial association between PEG placement and transplant-related mortality as well as 5-year overall survival compared with the non-PEG group (12.9% vs 59.0%, P = 0.000; 85.3% vs 35.1%, P = 0.000, respectively). The beneficial impact of PEG was most prominent on 5-year overall survival in older children (12-17 years) with grafts from matched unrelated donors.Conclusions: PEG placement had a positive association with transplant outcomes in pediatric patients undergoing aHSCT. To confirm these results, larger prospective studies are needed.
