Four patients, aged 67, 52, 56 and 64 years, respectively, undergoing percutaneous colostomy or jejunostomy are presented to illustrate current options for percutaneous endoscopic access to the digestive tract. The first patient had Parkinson's disease and required percutaneous jejunostomy for continuous post-pyloric administration of medication. The second patient had impaired gastric emptying due to gastric graft-versus-host disease following bone marrow transplantation. He was successfully treated with percutaneous jejunostomy, which was removed 2 years later after full recovery. The third patient had severe constipation due to the use ofmorphinomimetic analgesics. She received percutaneous caecostomy for colonic lavage and desufflation. The fourth patient had combined constipation and sphincteric insufficiency. Although the percutaneous endoscopic colostomy was clinically successful, the catheter had to be removed due to local pain and abscess formation.
