Abstract
Background and study aims: Buried bumper syndrome (BBS) may complicate percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy placement. In these patients, endoscopic treatment ought to be considered. Various approaches have been published, ranging from dissectionbased techniques to novel dedicated devices, although the evidence supporting the use of the Balloon Dilation Pull (BDP) technique has been limited to single case reports. The aim of this paper is to assess the feasibility, efficacy and safety of the systematic use of the BDPtechnique for the endoscopic treatment of BBS.
Patients and methods: We performed a retrospective multicenter analysis of prospectively collected data from all patients treated with the BDP-technique between January 2011 and November 2021.
Results: In total, 26 patients were identified (median age 72 (SD ± 13) years, 74% male, 84.6% underlying neurological disease). Technical success was achieved in 92.3%, with a median procedure time of 17.5 minutes (range 5-27). Adverse events were identified in 3.8% of patients (N=1, aspiration, ASGE lexicon severity grade: moderate).
Conclusions: Our experience suggests that the BDP-technique is highly efficacious and safe, using accessories readily available in every endoscopic unit. Given the limited procedure time and tools required, this procedure has the potential to further optimize patient care in the context of BBS.
期刊介绍:
The Journal Acta Gastro-Enterologica Belgica principally publishes peer-reviewed original manuscripts, reviews, letters to editors, book reviews and guidelines in the field of clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology, including digestive oncology, digestive pathology, as well as nutrition. Pure animal or in vitro work will not be considered for publication in the Journal. Translational research papers (including sections of animal or in vitro work) are considered by the Journal if they have a clear relationship to or relevance for clinical hepato-gastroenterology (screening, disease mechanisms and/or new therapies). Case reports and clinical images will be accepted if they represent an important contribution to the description, the pathogenesis or the treatment of a specific gastroenterology or liver problem. The language of the Journal is English. Papers from any country will be considered for publication. Manuscripts submitted to the Journal should not have been published previously (in English or any other language), nor should they be under consideration for publication elsewhere. Unsolicited papers are peer-reviewed before it is decided whether they should be accepted, rejected, or returned for revision. Manuscripts that do not meet the presentation criteria (as indicated below) will be returned to the authors. Papers that go too far beyond the scope of the journal will be also returned to the authors by the editorial board generally within 2 weeks. The Journal reserves the right to edit the language of papers accepted for publication for clarity and correctness, and to make formal changes to ensure compliance with AGEB’s style. Authors have the opportunity to review such changes in the proofs.
