Abstract

Both PEG and RIG insertion techniques compare favourably in terms of the majority of major and minor complications and long-term outcomes. However tube dislodgment rates are significantly higher following RIG insertion supporting an endoscopic approach where possible to minimise the risk of tube malposition resulting in peritoneal contamination.
