Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, 1992
When the surgeon must obviate to an impending obstruction because of an unresectable tumor of the supramesocolic space and an intestinal bypass is not feasible, a jejunostomy is usually indicated. We describe a new method to provide enteral nutrition via a subcutaneous jejunostomy without any external device, which can be used only when the patient is ...

A technique for converting a needle-catheter jejunostomy into a standard jejunostomy
The American Journal of Surgery, 1992The benefits of enteral nutrition for surgical patients have been well documented in the literature, and needle catheter jejunostomy is frequently used at initial surgical exploration. Occasionally, the need arises for prolonged use of the catheter, and problems occur with occlusion of the catheter.

Laparoscopic Gastrostomy and Jejunostomy
Journal of Long-Term Effects of Medical Implants, 2004The percutaneous/endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) has rapidly replaced the surgical gastrostomy as the preferred route for enteral access. In patients who are not candidates for a PEG, we prefer a laparoscopic gastrostomy to an open gastrostomy. Similarly, in patients who require a surgical jejunostomy, we prefer a laparoscopic approach. Minimally invasive

Direct percutaneous jejunostomy
American Journal of Roentgenology, 1987Percutaneous gastrostomy appears to be a safe method of providing enteric alimentation for patients with a wide variety of disorders in whom oral feeding is not possible or desirable [1 -6]. However, percutaneous gastrostomy may not be possible in some patients because of the unfavorable position of the stomach or because of previous partial or total ...

Direct Percutaneous Jejunostomy
Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 1994Enteral feeding via gastrostomy or gastrojejunostomy tubes has an established role in patients unable to maintain adequate oral intake. However, creation and maintenance of a site for long-term nutritional support can be significant problems in patients who have undergone previous surgery or in patients with chronic aspiration, abnormal stomach ...

Jejunostomy: An Indicated Procedure?
Archives of Surgery, 1986To the Editor .—In a recent issue, Adams et al 1 reported on their limited experience with 73 patients undergoing jejunostomy during a 15-year period. They concluded, based on this limited experience with high-risk patients, that jejunostomy is a rarely indicated procedure. I take strong exception to this point of view. The patients they described were
