title: [Postoperative percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy/jejunostomy].
abstract: In order to cure complications appeared in the postoperative period two patients were treated with percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy/jejunostomy (PEG, PEGJ) with the purpose of long-lasting enteral feeding and decompression. The indications of PEG/PEGJ were the following: external gastric fistula in one case and anastomotic leakage in one case. In the patients the PEG was located by intraoperative X-ray examination, this method was not published earlier. Regarding complications of the early postoperative period the PEG and the PEGJ are considered useful and expedient procedures with the aim of lasting enteral feeding and decompression.
