The standard for placement of pediatric gastrostomy tubes has been percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) using the Ponsky "pull" technique. This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of PEG placement using the "push" technique with T-bar fixation in pediatric patients. This technique generally is limited to the adult population. With this technique, endoscopy is performed. The stomach is insufflated, and the anterior abdominal wall is transilluminated. T-bar fasteners are sequentially deployed to secure the stomach to the anterior abdominal wall. Using a modified Seldinger technique, a gastrostomy tube is placed through the center of the T-bars.
