- Placement of an entrostomy tube such as gastrostomy or jejunostomy tube
- Surgical pyloroplasty
- Subtotal gastrectomy
Decompression and Enterostomy tube placement
Jejunostomy
- Jejunostomy tube is inserted through the abdomen directly into the small bowel.
- It bypasses the stomach and feeds nutrients straight into the small intestine.
- The nutrients are then digested and distributed to the bloodstream quickly.
