Percutaneous insertion of a jejunal tube via the collapsed blind end of elevated jejunum by a balloon puncturing method assisted by a balloon enteroscope.

Highlight Sasaki and colleagues inserted a balloon enteroscope to the collapsed blind end of the jejunum, and percutaneously punctured the retrieval balloon under ultrasound guidance to insert a jejunal tube. This balloon puncturing method is safe for inserting a jejunal tube percutaneously via the collapsed blind end of the elevated jejunum.
