Abstract

The authors have perfected the method of needle catheter jejunostomy introduced in 1973 for enteral feeding. Using the Seldinger technique reduces the risks of leakage, intra-operative haematoma and fistula following removal of the catheter. The operative procedure is described and the preliminary results are reported.
