Patients with impaired ability to eat require nutritional support enterally or parenterally. Gastrostomy is a preferred method because total parenteral nutrition has many complications and high cost. Surgical gastrostomy has been a traditional and well-established method prior to the development of percutaneous gastrostomy. Since then, percutaneous gastrostomy has been established as an effective, safe, easy technique with a low morbidity and mortality rate. Consequently, percutaneous gastrostomy has been the first method for long-term enteral nutrition. The purpose of this review is to describe the techniques, indications, complications of percutaneous radiologic gastrostomy/gastrojejunostomy and to compare with endoscopic method.
