[Percutaneous gastrostomy under fluoroscopic guidance. A one year experience].

The nasogastric tube has traditionally been used as nutritional support for patients with head and neck cancers. We propose the percutaneous gastrostomy under fluoroscopic guidance as a part of therapy in selected patients with head and neck cancers, or in those who have chronic aspiration and dysphagia secondary to neurologic impairment. Our one-year experience with our series of nasogastric tube is reviewed.
