“…Additionally, delayed healing in this group predisposes to a lack of sinus maturation enhancing and prolonging the risk of PEG dislodgement and leak. While the risks of surgical gastrostomy placement has been traditionally regarded as higher than minimally invasive modalities, new laparoscopic techniques have received insufficient consideration [7,13] and are, in our opinion, superior to blind techniques.…”

“…The major complication rate of PEG placement is 2% to 10%, with a mortality that approximates 1% [5][6][7][8]. Results are mixed regarding the relative superiority of percutaneous endoscopic or radiologic techniques [6][7][8][9]. Trends in Transplant, 2017 doi: 10.15761/TiT.1000227…”

“…It is mandatory to avoid excessive pressure and, consequently, ischemia of the T-fastener system and external fixation system, which might cause the infection. 12 We have to take under survelliance the onset of such complications when comparing the 2 methods of PEG and PRG: in fact comparing the results obtained with 177 PEGs and 193 PRGs, Silas et al 13 underlined indicated a major incidence of local infection affecting the radiologic method (23% vs 11%; p<0.02). Some authors report the a major complications rate ranging from 3-10% with PEG 6 vs 0.5-6% with PRG.…”

Gastrostomy tubes can be inserted either endoscopically or radiologically, depending on practicality of insertion and clinical need (1)(2)(3) . This study aims to compare complications of PEG and RIG procedures and also to compare pain experienced post-procedure.
