The relationship between percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) and subsequent development of gastroesophageal reflux (GER) is complex and not well understood. The authors retrospectively reviewed 82 children over a 5-year period who underwent PEG tube (n = 64) or PEG button (n = 18) placement. Children were evaluated preoperatively for clinical evidence of GER (C-GER) or radiographic GER (R-GER) with upper gastrointestinal contrast study or Tc99m gastric scinitiscan. Seventy-five patients were evaluated for clinical evidence of postoperative GER by direct family contact. Eleven of 39 (28%) patients with no GER preoperatively developed GER postoperatively, eight (20%) of whom required Nissen fundoplication (NF) or gastrojejunostomy (GJ) tube. Ten of 19 (53%) with preoperative C-GER but no R-GER continued to have GER after PEG, but only three required NF or GJ. Only one of nine children who had R-GER only developed clinical GER after PEG placement. Of the eight children with both C-GER and R-GER, only two (25%) required NF or GJ and two (25%) had no postoperative GER. The authors conclude that PEG tubes are useful in infants and children and are associated with a relatively low incidence of postoperative GER. If C-GER is absent, a PEG is a reasonable procedure to consider even in the presence of R-GER.
经皮内镜下胃造口术(PEG)与随后发生的胃食管反流(GER)之间的关系复杂且尚未完全明确。作者回顾性研究了82例在5年期间接受PEG管置入(n = 64)或PEG纽扣置入(n = 18)的儿童。术前通过上消化道造影或锝99m胃闪烁扫描评估儿童GER的临床证据(C-GER)或影像学GER(R-GER)。通过与家属直接联系对75例患者进行术后GER临床证据的评估。39例术前无GER的患者中有11例(28%)术后发生GER,其中8例(20%)需要行nissen胃底折叠术(NF)或胃空肠造口术(GJ)置管。19例术前有C-GER但无R-GER的患者中有10例(53%)在PEG术后仍有GER,但仅3例需要NF或GJ。9例仅患有R-GER的儿童中只有1例在PEG置管后发生临床GER。8例同时患有C-GER和R-GER的儿童中,只有2例(25%)需要NF或GJ,2例(25%)术后无GER。作者得出结论,PEG管对婴幼儿有用,且术后GER发生率相对较低。如果不存在C-GER,即使存在R-GER,PEG也是一个可考虑的合理手术。
