Q

JAVMA 2019 What were the findings associated with a US guided temporary percutaneous gastropexy with a gastrotomy catheter compared to thorcharization

A

Both methods led to rapid decompression. Ultrasound guided prevent misdirection of T-sutures.
Method recommeded if surgical delay may be anticipated over repeated torcharization, Most were in the body of the stomach
