Popis: Gastrostomy is mainly used to provide longterm enteral nutrition. Percutaneous techniques are generally preferred to surgery except for specific cases. Image-guided percutaneous gastrostomy, currently used less than the gastroscopy-guided technique, is a simple, reliable and advantageous technique in managing these frequently debilitated patients. The different aspects of the procedure will be described: indications, contraindications, technique, follow-up, main complications and technical variations.
