Abstract: Background and study aims  Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) and percutaneous radiologic gastrostomy (PRG) are techniques used for long-term enteral feeding. Our primary aim was to analyze procedure-related and 30-day mortality and complications between PEG and PRG in relation to indications. Patients and methods  A single-center retrospective analysis was performed thath included all adult patients receiving initial PEG (January 2008 until April 2016) and PRG (January 2010 until April 2016). Outcomes… Show more

“…Unlike our study, some found no significant difference for rates of postoperative ileus between groups [ 13 , 21 ]. Contrary to our results, prior literature reports no significant difference between PFG and PEG patient's odds of developing postoperative gastric outlet obstructions [ 8 , 17 ], wound infections [ 8 , 13 , 17 ], mechanical complications [ 8 , 11 , [13] , [14] , [15] , 21 , 22 ], or gastrostomy tract seeding [ 17 ]. Other literature rates of postoperative pain range from 2.3% to 20% for PFG and 0% to 12% for PEG [ 8 , 10 , 17 , 19 , 23 ].…”

“…This is drastically different from our study, which resulted in 41.9% of PEG and 45.9% of PFG patients reporting abdominal wall pain. This difference may be explained by the time frame in which pain was measured, as prior studies have also found higher rates of pain in PFG patients as a late complication but no significant differences in the short term [ 17 ].…”

“…It has been argued that local availability and expertise should be the deciding factor since these influences the success rate of placement both in terms of mortality, complications, and aftercare (17). PEGplacement is associated with less tube-related complications compared to PRG, but is not always possible when conscious sedation is deemed unfeasible due to respiratory impairment (4,17). PRG has a higher procedural success rate (17) and can take place later in the disease which may be attractive to patients wishing to postpone the procedure.…”

“…The two most commonly used methods of gastrostomy in ALS are percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG), which has long been the golden standard and most commonly used method, and percutaneous radiological gastrostomy (PRG), also known as radiologically inserted gastrostomy. Studies show no difference between PEG and PRG in the effect on survival or weight stabilization (11,13,16) and both come with advantages and drawbacks (4,17). Finally, a lack of patient readiness, i.e.…”
