ABSTRACT
Omentoplasty has been accepted as an effective surgical procedure for fistulated empyema. However, it is difficult for patients with poor nutritional status because their omental volume is often too poor to be applied for omentoplasty. Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy(PEG) is useful for long-term nutritional management. There is no report on safety and usefulness of PEG before omentoplasty. We report a case of omentoplasty that was successfully performed after nutritional enforcement by using percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy in a patient of postoperative empyema with fistula.
