Abstract
Sixty-one needle catheter jejunostomy procedures were performed in a community hospital setting with no morbidity. The procedure was used as an adjunct to a variety of surgical procedures. A review of patients receiving a needle catheter jejunostomy suggests that there should be a wider application of this technique, especially in the area of trauma and malignant disease.
