Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) was described for the first time in 1980 by Gauderer and Ponsky. It became the procedure of choice in most patients that are unable to eat owing due to neoplastic or neurological diseases or cerebrovascular accidents. In some cases, however, the transillumination of the gastric wall is missing and therefore another therapeutic option is required.

Abstract
Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) was described for the first time in 1980 by Gauderer and Ponsky. It became the procedure of choice in most patients that are unable to eat owing due to neoplastic or neurological diseases or cerebrovascular accidents. In some cases, however, the transillumination of the gastric wall is missing and therefore another therapeutic option is required.File in questo prodotto:
