Core Tip	Enteral nutrition (EN) is a life-saving procedure, preventing complications associated with malnutrition. The best solution for EN is percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG). In some cases, however, creating such access is impossible. In those cases, laparoscopy-assisted PEG should become the method of choice for gastrostomy tube placement and subsequent EN if PEG placement cannot be performed safely.
