- W2979676823 abstract "INTRODUCTION: Hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) is a severe complication of pregnancy that occurs in up to 2% of pregnancies nationwide. Symptoms range from nausea and vomiting, leading to dehydration, electrolyte imbalances, and ultimately, fetal and maternal compromise. Medical management is not always adequate for symptomatic control with HG patients and enteral feeding is required via a nasoenteric or percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube. We present a rare case of a pregnant female with HG that failed the mentioned above therapy and required a percutaneous endoscopic transgastric-jejunostomy (PEG-J) tube for post pyloric feeding. CASE DESCRIPTION/METHODS: A 27-year-old-female with a past medical history of HG in all prior pregnancies required nasojejunal (NJ) tube placement at approximately 20 weeks gestation due to weight loss from 30 episodes of emesis daily. She developed a posterior oropharyngeal ulcer requiring NJ tube removal. The decision to bypass intra-gastric feeding with a PEG-J tube was determined to be the best option for nutrition. A 24Fr PEG was placed, and a 12Fr jejunostomy catheter was passed through the PEG into the jejunum (A). Unfortunately, she returned as an outpatient 12 later with worsening symptoms. Abdominal radiograph revealed the jejunal portion of the tube to be in the distal stomach (B). The patient underwent a repeat upper endoscopy and PEG-J tube dislodgement was confirmed. The PEG-J was removed and an externally removable 22Fr low-profile PEG-J tube was placed using the existing gastrostomy stoma. Proper position of the tube was confirmed and the distal tip was secured to the jejunal wall with three hemoclips (C). The patient and fetus tolerated the procedure without complication and she went on to receive tube feeds through the PEG-J tube for the remaining 18 weeks of pregnancy. The PEG-J tube was removed with manual traction post-partum day 1 at the bedside after the patient was asymptomatic and tolerating general diet. DISCUSSION: There is very little recent literature on refractory HG cases requiring PEGJ-tube placement. This case demonstrates the importance of following a stepwise approach for nutritional support in refractory HG patients and that low-profile PEG-J can be a well-tolerated and safe treatment modality option in those who have failed conservative therapy. As seen in this case, PEG-J tube dislodgement is a potential complication but can be prevented effectively with hemoclips and therefore should not be a limiting factor for placement of PEG-J tube." @default.
