Abstract

Gastric decompression and feeding by jejunostomy are usually performed in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. In the technique described here, the gastrostomy and jejunostomy tubes are introduced through the same orifice created in the gastric wall, and a double Witzel canal is performed around the two tubes, together with fixation of the gastric wall to the parietal peritoneum. This techniques was used in 9 consecutive patients with no mortality or morbidity directly ascribable to the procedure.
