“…Note that glucagon has a short half-life (around 8 minutes) and can cause hyperglycemia in diabetics. 37 Then, securement of the stomach to the abdominal wall is generally recommended because it prevents intraperitoneal leakage of gastric contents during tract dilation, and it allows safe recanalization of the tract and replacement of a tube if the gastrostomy tube becomes inadvertently dislodged prior to tract maturation. 38 T-tacks are commonly used for gastropexy, although other devices exist.…”

Gastrostomy tube placement may be needed for nutritional support, as in the setting of neurogenic dysphagia or head and neck malignancy, or for gastric decompression, as in the setting of malignant small bowel obstruction. Additionally, gastrojejunostomy or direct jejunostomy tubes may be needed in the setting of gastric outlet obstruction among other indications. Surgical, endoscopic, and percutaneous approaches are all well-described with generally similar outcomes. In this article, the standard radiologic percutaneous gastrostomy technique is reviewed including both the “push” and “pull” methods. Then, the special indications and techniques of advanced percutaneous enteral access such as percutaneous transesophageal gastrostomy and direct jejunostomy are discussed with examples shown.
