Abstrakt: Purpose: Radiologically inserted gastrojejunal tubes (RGJ) and surgical jejunostomy (SJ) are established modes of jejunal feeding. The aim of the study is to review nutritional outcomes, complications and the practical consideration to enable patients and carers to make informed choice.
Methods: Retrospective review of patient notes with a RGJ or SJ in 2010, with detailed follow-up and review of the literature.
Results: Both RGJ and SJ are reliable modes to provide stable enteral nutrition. Both have complications and their own associated limitations.
Conclusions: The choice has to be tailored to the individual patient, the social care available, the inherent medical disease and risk/benefit of repeated anaesthetic and radiation exposure. RGJ and SJ are important tools for nutritional management that achieve and maintain growth in a complex group of children. The risk and benefits should be reviewed for each individual patient.
