BACKGROUND: Dysphagia after stroke is common and can impact morbidity and death. The purpose of this population-based study was to determine specific epidemiological and health risk factors that impact development of dysphagia after acute stroke. METHODS AND RESULTS: Ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke cases from 2010 and 2015 were identified via chart review from the GCNKSS (Greater Cincinnati Northern Kentucky Stroke Study), a representative sample of ≈1.3 million adults from southwestern Ohio and northern Kentucky...

Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy / jejunostomy (PEG/J) is a relatively safe and effective minimally invasive surgical approach to establish long-term enteral nutrition (EN) channels. Due to the good compliance and the reduced incidence of reflux and aspiration pneumonia, PEG/J is the preferred way for long-term EN and has been widely used in clinical applications. However, few technical guidelines or expert consensus guiding the clinical practice of PEG/J have been published. The formation of "Chinese expert consensus on clinical application of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy / jejunostomy (2024 edition)" is led by the Committee of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, Chinese Research Hospital Association...

Dysphagia is common in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients, often requiring percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) for enteral nutrition. We retrospectively analyzed data from 188 Korean patients with ALS who underwent PEG tube insertion at five-time points: symptom onset (t1 ), diagnosis (t2 ), recommended time for gastrostomy (t3 ), PEG insertion (t4 ), and one-year post-insertion (t5 ). The recommended time point for gastrostomy (T-rec for gastrostomy) was defined as the earlier time point between a weight loss of more than 10% and advanced dysphagia indicated by the ALSFRS-R swallowing subscore of 2 or less...

OBJECTIVE: Crouzon syndrome with acanthosis nigricans (CAN) is caused by the specific mutation c.1172C>A (p.Ala391Glu) in the fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 gene, and has an estimated prevalence of 1:1,000,000 births. Most cases occur de novo; however, autosomal dominant inheritance may occur. The clinical presentation typically includes craniosynostosis, midface and maxillary hypoplasia, choanal atresia/stenosis, hydrocephalus, and intracranial hypertension. Patients develop acanthosis nigricans, a hyperkeratotic skin disorder...

BACKGROUND: Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube placement is generally safe but is associated with a range of complications. Minor complications include infections, granuloma formation, leakage, and blockages, while major complications encompass aspiration pneumonia, hemorrhage, and more serious conditions such as necrotizing fasciitis and colonic fistula. AIM: This study aimed to assess the rate of short-term complications within one month of endoscopic PEG insertion, focusing on their correlation with patient characteristics...

INTRODUCTION: gastrocolic fistula is an infrequent but severe complication of percutaneous gastrostomy. Clinical suspicion in the presence of chronic diarrhea of unknown etiology manifesting after percutaneous radiological gastrostomy (PRG) tube replacement is key to early detection and treatment. CASE REPORT: we report the case of a patient with PRG that began with chronic diarrhea after tube replacement and developed severe malnutrition. Initial treatment was not effective, studies were extended with the finding of this complication in a CT image...

Upper Aerodigestive Tract Endoscopy (UATE) is recommended for initial examination of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas. Reducing delay of initial examination must be a challenge to manage head and neck cancers. We hereby describe the technic combining UATE and flexible endoscopy in a unique general anesthesia with overview of hypopharyngeal, larygeal, tracheal, esophageal, nasopharyngeal sub sites in a unique procedure with system of magnificense and to perform percutaneous gastrostomy during the same time before initiation of therapy...

This report describes the experience of removing migrated gastrointestinal stents using a gastrostomy access. Four male patients ages years (23-62, mean 42) had 6 migrated stents removed using existing (n=3) or new (n=1) gastrostomy access. Removed stents included 5 covered esophageal stents that migrated into the stomach and 1 distal non-covered duodenal stent that migrated into the proximal duodenum. One patient had two stents removed during the same session. All stents were removed successfully without complications...

PURPOSE: There are limited studies assessing modifiable preoperative risk factors for pediatric laparoscopic gastrostomy tubes (LGT) and percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tubes. We sought to evaluate the effect of demographics and surgical/infectious history on the superficial infection rate following gastrostomy tube (GT) placement.

A 65-year-old with a history of spinal cord injury and previous cervical surgery presented with persistent fever despite antibiotic treatment. MRI scans revealed an abscess in the neck extending from C3 to C6, with associated osteomyelitis. After an initial discharge following antibiotic therapy, the patient was readmitted due to recurrent systemic infection symptoms and another abscess. A subsequent endoscopy showed esophageal rupture with protruding cervical fusion metal. Due to operative risks, a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy was performed without further infection recurrence...

BACKGROUND: Post-gastrostomy bleeding sequelae are acknowledged, with reported approaches focusing on conservative measures or surgical repair. Nonetheless, Percutaneous Thrombin Injections (PTI) role in PEG-site-related bleeding remains underexplored. PTI under ultrasound guidance is an advocated management strategy for stoma-site bleeding following gastrostomy in high-risk patients, particularly those on direct oral anticoagulants.

OBJECTIVES: Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) has emerged as a minimally invasive approach for oropharyngeal cancer, aiming to improve functional preservation and reduce morbidity. However, the long-term effects on speech and swallowing, crucial aspects of quality of life, remain unclear.

Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) and percutaneous endoscopic gastro-jejunal (PEG-J) tube placement are both common procedures regularly performed on patients requiring nutritional support. These procedures may be complicated by infection, hemorrhage, fistulization, or tube migration. We present an extremely rare case of a patient with a PEG-J tube that migrated into the esophagus.

An 11-year-old male Schnauzer dog was referred for investigation of cough and regurgitation of one month duration and gradual hyporexia for the previous five months. Complete blood count showed severe leukocytosis. On ventrodorsal and lateral thoracic radiographs a soft tissue mass was visible in the craniodorsal mediastinum. Endoscopy showed esophageal dilatation and an irregular, nodular, friable, exophytic mass in the thoracic esophagus, which was invasive, vascularized and had ulcerated areas. The mass occluded approximately 90% of the esophageal lumen...
