Abstract
Radiologically inserted gastrostomy (RIG) is an alternative to percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) for patients with eating difficulties who need long-term enteral nutrition. This articles provides an overview of the technique of RIG as well as an analysis of the results of RIG at our institute over the last five years and a discussion of the literature. The number of centres in the Netherlands offering RIG is growing and therefore we want to raise awareness amongst colleagues who are not familiar with this alternative to PEG.
