In neurological diseases, a feeding tube can be inserted into the stomach with the PEG method in all kinds of diseases that involve the mouth and throat area, where the patient cannot fulfill the swallowing functions. In patients who have oral feeding problems for more than 1 month, insertion of the feeding tube into the stomach with the PEG method is in the best interest of the patient.

With the PEG gastric feeding tube inserted to the patients, it is ensured that the patients receive sufficient calories. Patients with a PEG tube can also continue to be fed orally. After swallowing functions are restored or improved, the patient's PEG tube can be easily withdrawn.
