[Post-operative temporary enteral nutrition methods].
OBJECTIVE
Of the present work is to promote duodenostomy as the postoperative enteral nutrition way, when surgery ends in an anastomosis in which one of the partners is the esophagus (esophagectomies, esogastrectomies and total gastrectomies).


METHODS
Consisted of 45 cases 815 total gastrectomy, 14 esogastrectomy, 6 esophageal resections and 10-esophageal plasty) in which we used: nasofaringoesogastric or nasofaringoesojejunal probes (14 cases); Witzel jejunostomy (11 cases); gastrostomy (10 cases); duodenostomy (10 cases).


CONCLUSIONS
Show the many advantages of duodenostomy as compared to other enternal nutrition methods: technical simplicity, patient's comfort, avoidance of complications involved by the use of nasopharingoesodigestive probe or by jejunostomy, etc.
