  • Title: Laparoscopically assisted antegrade percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy.
    Author: Idowu O, Driggs XA, Kim S.
    Journal: J Pediatr Surg; 2010 Jan; 45(1):277-9. PubMed ID: 20105621.
    Abstract:
    We describe a new technique named laparoscopically assisted antegrade percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG), whereby a PEG tube is placed in the stomach with the aid of laparoscopy. The procedure is simple and avoids injury to adjacent organs that may occur with a standard PEG tube placement.
