Popis: To evaluate the safety and primary technical success rate of gastric decompression via percutaneous transabdominal gastrostomy (PTAG) or percutaneous transesophageal gastric (PTEG) catheter placement for management of malignant bowel obstruction (MBO). A secondary purpose was to evaluate the safety and success rate for PTAG catheter placement in patients with both MBO and ascites. A single-institution retrospective review of 385 patients who underwent attempted decompression gastric catheter placement from March 2013 to August 2018 was performed. Medical records and imaging studies were reviewed. A subgroup of patients with concomitant MBO and ascites were identified. The primary outcome measures were procedural technical success and procedural complications. 394 decompression gastrostomy catheters were attempted from 2013 to 2018, n = 353 PTAG and n = 41 PTEG. The success rate was 95.5% (n = 337 of 353) for PTAG and 97.6% (n = 40 of 41) for PTEG. There were 63 total complications involving 47 (13.9%) patients following PTAG and 13 total complications involving 9 (22.5%) patients following PTEG, P = 0.16. For the subgroup of patients with MBO and ascites, the success rate was 94.8% (n = 182 of 192 patients), and there were 20 complications involving 17 (12.9%) of 132 patients. Gastric decompression for patients with MBO via PTAG or PTEG catheter placement is associated with high success rates and low complications.
