    Author: Bodoky A, Heberer M, Iwatschenko P, Harder F.
    Journal: Chirurg; 1985 Oct; 56(10):644-50. PubMed ID: 3935397.
    Abstract:
    Needle catheter jejunostomy is used to a varying extent today. Therefore, the need for nutritional support was evaluated following elective abdominal surgery and compared to experiences with postoperative enteral feeding. Oesophagectomy, total gastrectomy and the Whipple procedure were identified as good indications for catheter jejunostomy, whereas with other types of operation an individual decision is required.
