    Abstract:
    After palliative surgery artificial nutrition is indicated primarily in patients receiving postoperative chemotherapy or radiotherapy. The techniques of ambulatory enteral or parenteral nutrition have been standardized during the past decade. They can be used with minimal risk even in patients with advanced cancer. An improvement of the nutritional status can be expected in most of the patients. Further clinical trials are needed to determine whether the patients' quality of life improves.
