Percutaneous jejunostomy: repeat access at the healed site of prior surgical jejunostomy with US and fluoroscopic guidance.

Purpose: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of ultrasound (US)- and fluoroscopy-guided jejunostomy tube placement in patients with a history of surgical jejunostomy.

Materials And Methods: Between June 2003 and June 2012, percutaneous US-guided jejunostomy placement was attempted 28 times in 26 patients with a history of surgical jejunostomy (14 men and 12 women). Retrospective chart review was performed to determine procedural success, complications, and interval between original jejunostomy and new tube placement.
