“…In this prospective case study, SBE, with its ability to provide deeper small-bowel intubation, was shown to facilitate the identification of an ideal DPEJ insertion site for the placement of a direct percutaneous jejunal feeding tube. Recently, small case series have reported successful placement of DPEJ using DBE [11,12]. The current study is the first to focus on the placement of DPEJ using the SBE technique.…”

Direct percutaneous endoscopic jejunostomy (DPEJ) has emerged as a viable alternative for percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy with jejunal extension (PEG-J) in patients who cannot tolerate gastric feeding. Reportedly, DPEJ placement with regular endoscopes fails in up to one-third of cases. The aim of the current study was to assess the efficacy and safety of single-balloon enteroscopy (SBE)-assisted DPEJ. The DPEJ placement technique was comparable to conventional PEG placement. A total of 12 DPEJ procedures were performed in 11 patients (mean age 55 years [range 24-83 years]; seven males). SBE-assisted DPEJ was successful in 11 of the 12 procedures (92%). Post-procedural complications included gastroparesis and aspiration pneumonia in one case each. We conclude that SBE-assisted DPEJ placement seems a safe and successful approach for patients requiring jejunal enteral feeding.

“…DBE has facilitated reliable and controlled small bowel access beyond previous push enteroscopy techniques. The first successful PEJ placement using DBE was reported by Yan et al [7], followed by a case series by Despott et al [8 & ] of 10 consecutive attempts. This latter report included a detailed description of the DBE PEJ placement procedure.…”

“…The patient was unable to tolerate any solids or liquids, despite the addition of promotility agents and a new therapeutic approach was needed. Recent reports in the literature describe successful placement of direct feeding jejunostomy tubes using double balloon enteroscopy 3–5 . We used this ‘new therapeutic angle’ in order to alter the aortomesenteric angle in our patient.…”
