Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy has been a valuable tool in nutritional rehabilitation since its inception in 1980. Although it was originally described in children, a large sector of the adult population is dependent on it for nutritional support. Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy tube insertion is generally a safe procedure. Nevertheless, variable incidence rates of complications have been reported. The present review highlights the up-to-date indications, contraindications and complications of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy in children, along with a discussion of issues that need further exploring through future research.
经皮内镜下胃造口术自1980年问世以来，一直是营养康复的一项重要工具。尽管它最初是在儿童中描述的，但很大一部分成年人群依赖它来获得营养支持。经皮内镜下胃造口管置入术通常是一种安全的手术。然而，已有并发症发生率各异的报道。本综述重点介绍了儿童经皮内镜下胃造口术的最新适应证、禁忌证和并发症，并讨论了需要通过未来研究进一步探索的问题。
